K1 Architecture course codes
By UCAS's old subject scheme, a course code starting K1 means architecture, in the architecture, building and planning area (K). 145 courses at 64 UK universities use one for 2027 entry: most ask for between 64 and 112 UCAS points; 26 courses quote A-level grades instead, most often AAA. Another 21 joint honours courses carry K1 as their second subject.
