Note, however, that a good grade in TMUA can lead to reduced A-level and IB requirements.

[Warwick Statistics @warwickstats]

We are currently receiving applications for our undergraduate degrees in MORSE, Mathematics and Statistics and Data Science. Full details of our typical conditional offers can be found on this page. In particular, note TMUA is not required.
