Our entry requirements indicate standard and Minimum qualifications with which we usually accept students. Competition for places varies yearly, and you aren't guaranteed a business if you meet the minimum qualifications.
The University does not sponsor students to study in part-time programs in the UK under the Student Visa route. International Applicants must therefore have other valid immigration leave to learn in this program.
