Information for students from China

Undergraduate - Year 1

For entry to most of our undergraduate courses, we require successful completion of College Entrance Examination with 60% or China High School Graduation Certificate with a minimum average of 75. If you have any questions about entry requirements and the suitability of your qualifications, please contact your regional team.

To find out more about our entry requirements for China, please read our guide. Pre-sessional English and ongoing English language support.

For students who would like to study at Middlesex, but don't meet our English language requirements we offer a range of pre-sessional English courses. By the end of the course you will have the academic English and confidence to study on a Middlesex degree. And, you won't need to take any further English language tests, such as IELTS.

You can find the start dates and fees for our Pre-sessional English courses on the Pre-sessional course page.

We also provide English language support throughout your degree programme. We run free workshops and one-to-one tutorials in academic writing, English language, and communication so you can continue to improve your English skills while you study with us.

We understand that knowing how you’ll fund your studies as an international student is something you’ll want to tick off your list as soon as possible. We’ve got plenty of support on budgeting to help you get the most out of your money and your university experience.
