  • copy of your passport or ID
  • digital picture

Have an English proficiency certificate such as IELTS (or equivalent) with a 6.5 overall and no section below 6.0. This is necessary if you do not hold UK citizenship, due to visa requirements

Step 2 – Screening 


We will let you know if you have been selected for a Motivational Interview in English, which we will do online.
