Entry requirements
We don’t currently display entry requirements for United States. Please contact the Student Admin team on studentadmin@sunderland.ac.uk or 0191 515 3154.
If English is not your first language, evidence is required of at least Level 6 attainment in the International English Language Testing Scheme (IELTS). Please see our English language requirements. However, students must be aware that to qualify and be accepted for teacher training an IELTS score of 6.5 is necessary. This may mean that some overseas students will need to undertake additional language development classes and take another IELTS assessment during the progress of the course.
Additional information
Sports Coaching and Physical Education students will be subject to Safeguarding and Fitness to Practise procedures. Prior to admission, a Disclosure and Barring service (DBS) check is required for UK students, whereas for overseas students, a Certificate of Good Conduct from the domicile police force is required. This is then superseded by a DBS check which must be obtained by the student six months after starting the course.
In addition, an Occupational Health check will be undertaken by the University Occupational Health partner. If required, the health check documentation is sent externally to an independent GP contacted by the University for approval. Students will be asked to complete and sign two self-declaration forms prior to admission and at the beginning of each academic year, one declaring good health and the other personal good conduct. No student will be allowed on placement without the completion of the requisite documentation.
