N5 Marketing course codes

By UCAS's old subject scheme, a course code starting N5 means marketing, in the business and administration area (N). 295 courses at 86 UK universities use one for 2027 entry: most ask for between 64 and 112 UCAS points; 39 courses quote A-level grades instead, most often BBC. Another 156 joint honours courses carry N5 as their second subject.
