Get advice on which foundation courses are best for you to still study Islamic Banking and Finance, MBA, if you do not meet the minimum requirements in terms of UCAS score, A levels, or English language requirements.

Entry to the MBA in Islamic Banking and Finance programme requires a 2(ii) undergraduate degree in a relevant subject, e.g. economics, finance, accounting, management from a university, or a similar qualification from any other institution. A lower 2nd class honours degree or higher is required, or equivalent overseas qualification and grade. Alternatively, possession of a suitable professional qualification and relevant practical experience may also be accepted. In general, however, applicants are judged on their individual merits and age, work experience and other factors are also considered. For MBA degrees, whilst work experience is desirable, it is not essential.

If your native language is not English, you must provide satisfactory evidence that you have an adequate knowledge and understanding of written and spoken English. We require: IELTS: 6.0 (with no element below 5.5), Pearson PTE: a score of 56 (with no element lower than 51), Cambridge English Test – Advanced: 169 (with no element lower than 162).

It may be necessary for applicants falling short of this minimum standard to attend an intensive English Language course before registering for the academic programme.
