The University of Greater Manchester, in partnership with Imperial English UK, offers a flexible and accessible pathway to meet the University’s English language entry requirements.
This option has been introduced to provide students with a more affordable, convenient, and time-efficient alternative to traditional English language testing and preparation. Students can study remotely from home, avoid long waiting times for test results, and secure their place on a degree programme without unnecessary delays.
You may choose to:
Take the Imperial IELTS Test, or
Enrol on an Imperial IELTS Preparation Course
Both options are approved for UGM admissions.
