An unofficial source says, Heriot-Watt acceptance rate is 45%. This shows that the university is moderately tough to enter and follows a tough procedure during selection. The university selects students based on their high school scores, English language proficiency, and extra activities. Students should perform good in studies to get selected.

HWU aims to issue the CAS letter of the students within 5-10 working days of receipt of your CAS evidence quest form. In busy months like August it may take longer, or if the documents provided by the students are not complete at first submission, it may also take longer to complete the process.
