For example, you may already have a degree which was taught and assessed in English and/or significant professional experience of using spoken and written English. Candidates may be asked to satisfy IELTS/TOEFL standards (minimum spoken and written scores of IELTS 7.0 or TOEFL IBT 100 or Pearson Test of English Academic 60), but this is not a pre-requisite to apply.
