P9 Other media and communications course codes

By UCAS's old subject scheme, a course code starting P9 means other media and communications, in the media, journalism and communications area (P). 51 courses at 23 UK universities use one for 2027 entry: most ask for between 56 and 112 UCAS points; 19 courses quote A-level grades instead, most often ABB. Another 35 joint honours courses carry P9 as their second subject.
