English requirements
Every year we welcome students from around 100 different nations to study with us here at Cass. It is essential that all students have an excellent command of English in order to participate fully in the collaborative learning process. We therefore require all students who have not previously studied in English to sit an IELTS or TOEFL exam. If you are not a native English speaker but have studied or are studying in English at degree level, please submit a copy of your most recent English language test along with your application.
The required IELTS level for students who have not studied in the UK, or another English speaking environment, is a well balanced 7.0 with a minimum of 6.5 in writing.
For TOEFL we require:
* 107 (internet based test)
* 263 (computer based test)
* 627 (paper based test)
Our TOEFL code is 0870, department code 02
We do not offer a pre-sessional English class as an alternative to achieveing these scores. Any pre-sessional course should be viewed as a way of settling into living and studying in the UK and not as a way of topping up an IELTS or TOEFL score.
