If you have already completed an English Language qualification, please include the test results alongside your application as supporting documentation.
You can apply for the programme before you complete an English language qualification or if you are still studying. We will assess your application, including your personal statement and any qualifications you have already attained.
If you are suitable for the programme we will send you a conditional offer. This will explain which grades you need to be accepted onto the programme, and the deadline to provide supporting documentation.
