a place of study. Applicants whose first language is not English
must have a standard of written and spoken English that will enable
them to benefit fully from their course of study and must be able
to provide recent evidence that their spoken and written command
of the English language is adequate for the programme for which they

the academic progress of students is not hindered by language difficulties
