Entry Requirements
Our entry requirements vary from course to course, and depend on whether you are applying to a  Undergraduate or a Postgraduate Programme.
Each course sets its own entrance requirements, and you will usually be required to attain required grades, which are listed under the course details.  Admissions tutors will be happy to advise you on international entry requirements for their courses.
Applicants should provide attested copies of their qualifications and translations (from approved translator) of each document that is not in English.

• For postgraduate courses, you will need a good degree from a UK or international university.

English Proficiency Requirement
