Applications and qualifications English language requirements
We recognise and warmly welcome a
wide range of international school leaving
certificates, matriculation certificates,
junior college and polytechnic diplomas
as standard entry qualifications to our
undergraduate courses. Every effort will
be made to equate international
qualifications with UK standards of entry,
and offers will be made on a like-for-like
basis. Applications for entry to all years of
our undergraduate courses should be
made through the Universities and
Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS) by
applying online at www.ucas.com. If you
would like an initial assessment of your
qualifications, please contact our
Admissions Office staff who will be able
to offer advice. As well as the academic requirements for
your studies, you will also have to
demonstrate a proficiency in both spoken
and written English. We are able to
consider a wide range of qualifications to
assess your English language ability,
including many school-based
qualifications. Where we include an
English language requirement as part of
your conditions, we will typically refer to
the International English Language
Testing System (IELTS). Our minimum
IELTS requirements are an overall score
of 6 with no individual elements lower
than 5.5. This is our minimum entry level
and some courses require a higher level
of language proficiency. Please refer to
the individual course pages for more
information.
