For applicants whose first language is not English the minimum English language requirement is an Academic IELTS 6.0 with no band score less than 5.5. Trinity ISE: Pass at level III or equivalent English language tests comparable to IELTS equivalent score. In exceptional circumstances, as an alternative to (a) (i) or (a) (ii) and/or (b), where an individual has substantial and significant experiential learning, a portfolio of written evidence demonstrating the meeting of graduate qualities (including subject-specific outcomes, as determined by the Course Committee) may be considered as an alternative entrance route. Evidence used to demonstrate graduate qualities may not be used for exemption against modules within the programme.
