These 5 or 6 terms programs starting in January or April are internationally recognised examinations and the traditional entry qualifications to all British universities.

Pre-MBA/Business Masters Programme

In order to qualify for entry to a UK MBA/Business Masters programme, students need to have a good first degree and usually work experience gained in their own country.

Bellerbys College Pre-MBA/Business Masters Programme provides everything else you need before embarking on the challenge of a full MBA. English language training (IELTS/academic English), study skills, business English and business presentation skills are at the heart of the programme. GMAT classes are provided where applicable and a full counselling and placement service guides the student to the appropriate course and university.

Masters Qualifying Programme

Many students have a diploma from their own country. It is likely that they will need more qualifications to enable them to enter a Masters course in the UK. Bellerbys College has designed the Masters Qualifying Programme (MQP) in consultation with several partner universities. This programme supplements a student’s academic qualifications as well as preparing them linguistically for their course.

Students take a 6 or 9 month programme at Bellerbys after which they are qualified to go onto Masters programmes at universities who recognise the scheme.
