* Russell Group is a term for a group of universities with a shared focus on research, and a reputation for academic achievement. There are not any specifically different entry requirements for a Russell Group university. Universities and courses all have their own entry requirements but, given their strong reputation, the entry requirements for a Russell Group university are often higher.
