When you look at our courses you'll see that many have a qualification in the course title followed by a level from The Scottish
Credit and Qualifications Framework (SCQF).
We have shown below where our courses fit into the SCQF Framework and depending what level of qualifications you have we
have shown what level of course you can apply for at the college (although there may be some exceptions).
You can view an interactive version of the SCQF Framework at www.scqf.org.uk.
Full details on all entry requirements for our courses can be found on our website www.cityofglasgowcollege.ac.uk.
