Entry requirements

Most international students applying for an undergraduate or postgraduate degree will need to take IELTS.

For a postgraduate Masters Degree the entry requirement is usually IELTS 6.5 and for undergraduate it can range from IELTS 5.5 - IELTS 6.5. Students who do not have this level can study an IELTS course with us, or do a University Preparation Course which includes IELTS and other skills useful for university study.

Undergraduate

Students who are applying for an undergraduate degree will need a recognised high school leaving certificate. For some countries this will mean that you need to do our Foundation Course before entering a UK university.

Postgraduate

Students applying for a postgraduate degree will usually need equivalent to a higher second or a first division in their undergraduate degree. For some countries this will mean that you need to do our Pre-Masters before entering a UK university.

Your application

We are happy to help all our students with their applications. This is a free service and you can use it to apply before you leave your country or while you are in the UK.

We have a Careers Advisor who is available to meet with anyone interested in studying at a UK university or college. If you are in London, you can contact Germaine now to make an appointment.
