Overview

Suitable for those who wish to obtain or improve an IELTS score. This qualification is now a requirement for most university courses, professional career paths, and visa applications.

This course is for those non-native speakers wishing to go to university or to follow a professional career path where having an IELTS score is essential. The College is not an IELTS test centre but we can give students the chance to practise the various aspects of the test (IELTS Academic Mode) in a workshop session, and improve their exam skills and strategies.

• Generally, the course starts in September and January
• Each semester lasts 16 weeks
• We offer flexible start and end dates throughout the year
• A short-term study visa may be required for international students
• Information for International students can be found on our International webpage.

Applying

We offer two three-hour sessions a week and each class is held on a different day. Most classes do take place during the day, although evening classes are usually available.
