International students

We deliver a range of learning opportunities to both local and visiting students. If you are an international applicant, you must adhere to the relevant English language entry requirements, depending on the course you are applying for.

Please be aware the Isle of Man Government Travel Notification Service (TNS) which is managing travel to and from the island during the ongoing Covid-19 restrictions, has confirmed the following in relation to International students:

“Each of the students will be required to apply online for the Manx Entry Permit under contractual obligations https://covid19.gov.im/general-information/application-forms-and-landing-forms/  International students will be asked to provide a proof of their College placement and copy of a rental (accommodation) agreement. The student will still have to gain a Study Visa, as the Manx Entry Permit does not replace it.”

For further information regarding moving to the Isle of Man, please refer to the government's guidelines: https://covid19.gov.im/general-information/people-wishing-to-move-to-the-isle-of-man/
