    Entry requirements

    (Subject to formal approval)

    Applicants will normally have a good degree awarded by an approved UK or overseas university, in accounting and finance, economics, management (with a significant component of economics and/or accounting and finance) or a quantitative science such as mathematics, physics or engineering.  The School recognises that there are able students who lack the usual academic qualifications but have appropriate professional qualifications, such cases are considered individually on merit.

    If we need evidence of your proficiency in English, you will be required to achieve a minimum score of at least 6.5 on the IELTS test (with no sub-text less than 5.5), or a score of 94 in the internet-based TOEFL (with minimum scores of Reading 22, Listening 21, Speaking 23, Writing 21), or 60 in the PTE (Pearson Test of English).

    NB the UK government is currently reviewing its English language requirements for the grant of student visas: some applicants whose English is acceptable to the School and University, may nevertheless need a suitable IELTS score to get a visa. For further detail, please see

    We shall, of course, keep applicants advised of UK government requirements as they relate to our admissions (last update: 10 January 2011).
