Frequently asked questions
We're Scottish family. Why choose Cambridge / A-Level rather than Scottish Highers?
Scottish universities admit via UCAS with Highers OR Cambridge A-Level. For UK-outside-Scotland universities (Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial, LSE, UCL, Warwick, Bristol) Cambridge A-Level is the natural pathway. Cambridge A-Level also globally recognised for international university destinations.
Does Smartious support UCAS applications for Scottish universities?
Yes. UCAS is the single application system for UK universities including Scottish institutions (Edinburgh, St. Andrews, Glasgow, Aberdeen, Dundee, Strathclyde, Heriot-Watt). Cambridge A-Level is accepted alongside Scottish Highers.
