English for Academic Purposes

Are you planning to study at university in the UK? If so, you will need the appropriate skills and qualifications in English to ensure your university application is successful.

Oxford House College, Oxford has special courses for students who want to study at university in the UK. Choose one of these access courses to help ensure that your chosen university will accept your application!

For students with an upper-intermediate level of English or higher we recommend our English for IELTS course. Many UK universities require prospective overseas students to take the IELTS (International English Language Testing System) examination. This course will help you prepare thoroughly for IELTS, and our experienced tutors will offer you the highest possible degree of support and advice.

Our unique International Foundation Course offers you fast access to degree level study in just nine months. It will prepare you with the skills for higher education study in the United Kingdom combining six months English language with short modules in business related subjects, computing, data handling and cultural awareness. A special module will also introduce you to the specific study skills necessary for undergraduate study.

We will also offer free information from British University Placements (BUP) about applying to UK universities, and advice about courses, university accommodation and university life.
