However, the University of Greenwich accepts 6.5 to 7 applications out of every 10 it recieves, while the University of Manchester only accepts 4-5 applications. Thus it can be inferred that the University of Greenwich is slightly easier to secure admissions to than UOM.

Both institutions are considered part of the best universities in the UK. Despite that both have a contrasting nature of granting admissions to students. The University of Greenwich acceptance rate stands at around 64%, while that of University of Manchester stands at 13%. It can be inferred that while both are selective at granting admissions, UOM is nearly 6 times harder to secure admission to as compared to the University of Greenwich. 

Prospective candidates must perform exceedingly well in past academics as well as entrance examinations to have a chance of securing a seat at the University of Manchester.
