Language requirements

English-language proficiency is required. Where a minimum IELTS/TOEFL/PTE score is listed above, that figure is the threshold; otherwise typical requirements are around IELTS 6.0–6.5 for undergraduate and 6.5–7.0 for postgraduate study (or an accepted equivalent, or a Medium-of-Instruction waiver). Confirm the exact score with your advisor.

Proof of English proficiency — typically IELTS, TOEFL, PTE, Duolingo or equivalent (see the minimum scores listed). A Medium-of-Instruction (MOI) letter may be accepted in place of a test by some institutions.
