English Language Requirements and Support

We are proud to welcome students from all over the world, and for many of our students, English is a second language. The Home Office (UKVI) defines certain countries as “Majority English Speaking Countries”, and nationals from these countries are typically not required to obtain an English Language Qualification for entry onto one of our courses. You can check the following section for the UKVI list of Majority English-Speaking Countries. 

If English is not your first language, you may be required to undertake an English Language Assessment to prove your level of English. Typically, we would expect admitting English Language Qualification to be no more than two years old at the time of entry onto your course. English Language Qualifications older than this can only be considered on an individual basis.  An exception to this would be if you are applying directly onto a Level 5 course and completed one year on a degree level programme in the UK.

If this is the case, you may be required to take a Secure English Language Test (SELT). The SELT will assess your reading, writing, speaking and listening abilities. The level of test you will need, known as the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) Level, will depend on your level of study. 

All the English Language Requirements for Regent College London are clearly outlined in our comprehensive guide. Meeting these requirements is crucial for both Home and International students. Take the first step on your academic journey by exploring all the essential information in our guide.
*Please note that courses offered in partnership with Buckinghamshire New University may be subject to separate English language requirements.
