If English is not your first language but you have completed the whole of your undergraduate studies in the UK, you are exempt from IELTS/TOEFL/PTE requirements.
We strongly advise students whose first language is not English to attend one of the summer pre-sessional courses offered by the University’s English Language Centre.
Some students may also be required to take the Pre-MSc Course, an orientation course for UK Master's level study, as a condition of their acceptance onto the programme.
