hi everyone. the first one is the newest criteria and the second one is the previous one. all are the same except the 'right to live and work in the UK'. Is it possible they forget it? If not I am getting excited.
Application criteria:

  • 6 GCSEs grade A-C or 5-9 including Maths, English and a Science or equivalent qualifications

For non-native English speakers, you will need to a certificate proving you have achieved International English Language Testing System (IELTS) Level 5.5 overall, with no less than 5.5 in any individual area (Reading, Writing, Listening and Speaking). This must be the Academic test, not General Training.
  • A valid passport which permits unrestricted worldwide travel.
  • Your height must be between 1.57m (5'2") and 1.90m (6'3"). Height is accurately determined during the assessment process. If you’re taller than 1.90m, you may submit an application, but may be required to undergo a functionality check.
  • Able to obtain and hold a UK CAA Class 1 medical with no restrictions and meet British Airways medical criteria.
