Program Overview

This popular joint programme combines two core social science disciplines. How competitive: Edinburgh usually makes offers to the highest-qualified applicants. In recent years most applicants needed from 37 points with 666 at HL to 40 points with 766 at HL to receive an offer, and some years are more competitive than others, so 37 does not guarantee one.
