English language requirements and courses
Students who have completed an International Programme degree taught in English at a select group of prestigious universities may be exempted from requiring a specific English language qualification for some of our programmes.
All our students require a good standard of English language to be eligible to study with us. If you don’t meet our requirements, we offer intensive pre-sessional English language courses, designed to take you to the level of English ability and skill required for your studies.
