Pre-Sessional English
All courses at the University of Leicester and the Global Study Centre are taught in English. You will need to prove you have a proficient level of English in order to embark on your chosen degree.
If you do not currently meet our English language entry requirements, you can enrol onto one of our Pre-Sessional English courses. Details of these are shown below.
The Global Study Centre’s Pre-Sessional English programmes are delivered by the University of Leicester Centre for International Training and Education (CITE). The CITE is accredited by the British Council and has nearly 30 years of experience in offering pre-sessional English.
Successful completion meets the English language requirement for all Global Study Centre programmes. There is no need to take another English language test, such as IELTS.
