within the past two years, this may be sufficient to meet our requirements. This will be assessed on a case-by-case basis, based on guidance provided by UK Visas and Immigration, and our Student Immigration and Compliance Team.

This includes important information about possible changes to courses, including entry requirements, and web links to terms and conditions you should consider before applying.
DO I NEED TO SUPPLY REFERENCES? We typically ask for one academic reference for postgraduate taught and two for postgraduate research courses. You should nominate referees who can provide an informed view of your academic ability and suitability for your chosen programme of study. If you have studied in Higher Education in the past two years, either at undergraduate or postgraduate level, we will require at least one reference from someone who taught you in your most recent place of study. We will accept professional references if you have been out of higher education for over two years. These must be submitted by your current or most recent line manager. Please note that personal references, such as those from family and friends, are not acceptable.
