Frequently Asked Questions
What English and degree requirements apply to master's courses at Manchester Metropolitan University?
For most taught master's courses (MA, MSc) you need IELTS 6.5 overall with no component below 5.5, or an accepted equivalent such as TOEFL or PTE. Some programmes ask for more, for example IELTS 7.0 for the MA Social Work and MA Multimedia Journalism. The degree requirement is set course by course (for example, the LLM International Corporate Law lists a lower second-class UK honours degree or equivalent), so check the Entry requirements section of your course page. If you need a UK Student visa, the test must be IELTS for UKVI. mmu.ac.uk

Is there a scholarship for international master's students at Manchester Metropolitan University?
Yes. The International Postgraduate Scholarship is a tuition fee scholarship of GBP 5,000 in the first year for most eligible taught master's courses starting in September 2026, and GBP 3,000 for a few programmes (such as the MBA and some architecture courses) and for selected January 2027 starts. You do not apply separately: eligibility is assessed when you apply, and it is for self-funded students who pay overseas fees. It is paid in proportion to the tuition fees charged, and the university reviews amounts each year, so confirm the figure on your offer. mmu.ac.uk
