ARU London

ARU London takes an individual and holistic approach to admissions. Decisions are not based solely on academic qualifications. Admissions assess the whole application, including relevant professional work experience and personal circumstances.

Published entry requirements on course profiles are a guide, not a fixed threshold. The admissions team assesses each applicant on their overall suitability for the programme.

For postgraduate courses at ARU London, typical requirements include:

•       A relevant undergraduate degree at 2:2 or above (or international equivalent)

•       Relevant professional work experience (the level and type varies by programme)

•       Some programmes such as the MBA may require a minimum number of years of management experience

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) is available for applicants who can demonstrate skills and knowledge acquired through professional experience or previous study equivalent to formal qualifications.

For students whose first language is not English, ARU London requires evidence of English language proficiency. The university accepts a range of qualifications and tests, all aligned with the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR).

Accepted tests include IELTS, TOEFL iBT, Duolingo English Test, and others. Specific minimum scores are listed on individual course pages.

As a general guide, postgraduate courses typically require IELTS 6.0 to 6.5 (or equivalent), depending on the programme.

Applicants who have completed a previous degree taught and assessed in English may be considered for exemption from additional language testing.
