English language learning
Studying in Manchester helps you improve your English language through your study, friends and everyday life. However, to get the best from your studies you need the appropriate language skills and our entry requirements for English language have been set to ensure that this is the case. In addition when you arrive in Manchester we arrange for your language skills to be assessed so that the appropriate tuition can be arranged if necessary.
If you do not currently have an English Language qualification at the required level then it may be possible to arrange a pre-sessional course, the duration of which will depend on your current English language qualification. For more information on the pre-sessional English language courses please visit the Universities Language Centre website.
