Students must demonstrate English proficiency through a secure and approved testing system.

We ask for English language proof from applicants from non-majority English speaking countries (a list of majority English-speaking countries, as defined by the UK Home Office, can be found here .)

Specifically, we require a minimum of:

• IELTS: Overall 6.5 (6.0 in each component)

Some English language test results are only valid for two years. Your English language test report must be valid on the start date of the course.
