Note: If you require a student visa and are ineligible for a combined CAS, you must provide a UKVI approved SELT as evidence of English Language. We can only potentially do a combined CAS for the 6 and 10 week courses (not the 20 week course) and you are only eligible if all other non- English language conditions have been met.
Please note that only the 6-week Pre-Sessional programme (or Direct Entry) can be used to meet entry requirements for the MBA programmes.
