Hi - We operate an open access policy and we don’t screen out any applications on your academic performance at A-Level or Degree alone. However, you will need a minimum of grade 4/C in GCSE (or equivalent) in English Language and Maths to be eligible to apply.

For some of our apprenticeships there are additional further government requirements. Please check the individual programme pages for further guidance.

While we welcome applications from candidates of all academic backgrounds, we are looking to recruit individuals who will succeed at EY in the role and future qualifications. We have completed several studies on academic attainment at A level (or equivalents), candidate performance in the online assessments in the EY recruitment process, and how that predicts future performance at EY.

Throughout the recruitment process, we therefore assess your suitability for an EY role by considering your scores in the online assessments alongside your academic attainment at A level or equivalent. We combine this with your scores obtained in the online assessments, and expect a minimum threshold to be achieved. As a guide, if you have less than 112 UCAS points from your top three A-levels, five Highers or equivalent, you will need to achieve very high scores within the online assessments to meet the threshold.

This approach is designed to ensure our joiners are successful in role and, where relevant, in the achievement of their professional qualifications. It is important to EY, and we have a duty of care which we take very seriously, to ensure our joiners are set up for long-term success.

If you are applying to one of our Business or Degree Apprenticeship positions, and are yet to obtain your A levels, Highers or equivalents, it is very important that you provide accurately predicted grades on your EY application form. An EY Apprenticeship offer is conditional on you obtaining the top three A Levels/top five Highers (or equivalents) that you predicted on your EY application form. If you do not meet your predicted grades, there is a risk your offer will be withdrawn. On results day we will verify your results to determine if you are still eligible for your offer of employment.
