English for Academic Purposes is an undergraduate pre-degree program designed for international students with a minimum English level of IELTS
3.0 or equivalent. In this 1 or 2 semester program, students develop the four key language skills of speaking, listening, reading and writing, in the context of degree-level studies. A strong emphasis
is placed on frequent assignments, a high level of formative assessment and detailed, supportive feedback. This approach enables close tracking of
a student’s progress and facilitates the provision of individual guidance. A further and important element of this program is the help given to students to
adapt to living and studying in a new environment.
Once students meet the minimum language requirements of IELTS 4.5 or equivalent they can progress into the University Bridging Program (see page 10).
