| ifps English language entry pre-requisites
All classes on the Foundation
Programme are taught in English. It is essential
that prospective students have a good command
of English language. Poor ability in English
can lead to academic failure and some social
isolation.
The English syllabus is especially
developed for ifps students.
(See
page ifps English)
Prospective students
must provide a recent IELTS, TOEFL or other
recognised test results showing
they have reached the required standard for
entry. Where students have not reached the
required
standard they will be recommended to take an
intensive English language course.
The preferred
English language courses are -
Clydebank College, Glasgow
- ESOL Unit
University of Glasgow, Language Centre, English
as a Foreign Language Unit
Edinburgh School of English (Private Language
School)
