In order to successfully pass our programmes, students need to achieve an English result equivalent to IELTS 6.0 (with no element below 5.5), and achieve a grade of 40% in every academic module.
OnCampus works to a standard programme pass mark for English of 60% overall, with no skill below 50%. It is noted that many degree programmes have a higher progression requirement.
