Academic Entry Requirements
Upper second class honours (2:1) Bachelor's degree or higher qualification; a suitable Masters degree may be specified for some studentships/programmes; research proposal required. Pakistan (official PG threshold applied - no separate research-degree Pakistan threshold published): 4-year Bachelor's GPA 2.6/4.0 or 60%; or 3-year Bachelor's + 2-year Master's at 2.6/4.0 or 60% in both; or 2-year Bachelor's + 2-year Master's at 2.6/4.0 or 60% in both. Confirm 2:1 equivalence with Admissions - do not assume 2.6/60% alone meets a 2:1 PhD standard. Pakistan applicants must take a SELT. No approved-agent-only, region-exclusion, deposit-before-CAS or study-gap rule was found on Stirling's official Pakistan page. PhD fees are payable for the first 3 years full-time, then a £500 registration-only fee; overseas fees are fixed at point of entry.
