English language courses
If you do not meet the English language entry requirements for the International Foundation Year or Pre-Masters programme, you can still enrol by taking an English language course first.
Courses take place at Durham University International Study Centre on Queen’s Campus in Stockton-on-Tees. When you complete your English language course and achieve the required grades, you can begin the International Foundation Year or Pre-Masters programme.
English language preparation
This course helps to raise your English language skills to the level you need for your programme at the International Study Centre. The course is for one or two terms, depending on your current level of English.
At the end of the English Language Preparation course, you will take an IELTS test to assess your level of English. You will progress to your chosen programme when you complete the course and achieve the required IELTS score.
