Undergraduate Admissions

History of Art course requirements

No particular subjects at A Level (or equivalent) are required for the History of Art course but subjects should be primarily academic. Subjects like History, English, Modern Languages, History of Art, Religious Studies and Classics are ideal, and Mathematics and experimental sciences are acceptable if accompanied by one or two arts A Levels. Art/History of Art does not necessarily confer an advantage.

Hughes Hall considers a reading knowledge of German, French, or Italian to be advantageous.

St John's considers a knowledge of two foreign languages and A Level History of Art useful.
