Getting in
As the university states it
Entry to the MA EAL programmes typically requires a second-class degree (2:2 or above) in a relevant subject. We assess each application individually, recognising that academic potential can be demonstrated through various professional and educational backgrounds. We value diverse professional backgrounds and recognise that valuable skills can be developed through various pathways. For international applicants, English language requirements are IELTS 6.5 with a minimum of 6 in each component. Full-time students are not required to undertake work-related learning. Part-time blended and part-time online students are expected to hold a professional role (paid or voluntary) within an educational setting for the duration of the course, typically 5 hours a week.
