Applicants for study at Tilsley College must demonstrate the ability to undertake a programme of this nature successfully. 

This will normally mean that an applicant holds at least three SQA Highers at grade C or above or three GCE AS levels or two A levels or academic equivalent.

Mature students (aged 21 and over) without these qualifications will be considered individually.

Applicants are required to give evidence of a personal commitment to Jesus Christ and to Christian truth, ethics, values and community.

They must agree with the College’s statement of faith

Proficiency in English

All applicants whose secondary schooling was in a language other than English must demonstrate a sufficient level of proficiency in English by achieving at least 5.0 in IELTS or an equivalent standard in another recognised English proficiency test.

Visa Conditions

Currently, applicants wishing to complete any of our full-time nine-month programmes must live in the UK.   

If you hold the passport of another country, you may be able to study with us for up to six months.   All potential applicants should check visa requirements at https://www.gov.uk/check-uk-visa

If you are required to apply for a visa in your own country before travelling to the UK, then we cannot accept an application request from you, unless you are known to GLO Europe or one of our partner organisations.
