We accept a wide range of qualifications for entry onto the Foundation Programme. In addition to the academic entry requirements, students will also need to meet the minimum English language requirements.
English language requirements
| IELTS ** | iBT TOEFL | Pearson Academic | Cambridge FCE
| GCSE/IGCSE English Language | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Foundation | 5.5 overall with at least 5.5 in each subscore | 90 overall with 20 in speaking and 18 in other subscores | 59 overall with 59 in each subscore | C or 160 | C or 4 |
Please bear in mind that, although we accept these forms of evidence when assessing a Foundation application, if you require a Student visa to study in the UK you will need to provide UKVI-approved English evidence, with a CEFR B2 in each of the four language skills (equivalent to at least 5.5 IELTS in each sub-score).
