West London College training does not normally require, on the part of the student, any previous knowledge of the subjects to be studied. However, prospective students should have attained a reasonable level of literacy and numeracy, or, where they wish to enrol for Professional examination courses, be able to provide evidence of holding the necessary GCE passes or their equivalent. Educational certificates held by intending students will vary from country to country; the College Faculty will judge these qualifications on their merits and advise the student accordingly.

Tuition is in English. Intending students must therefore have reached a reasonable level of fluency. To take care of any difficulties that may arise, the College has access to a remedial English Language Course and must reserve the right to transfer to this course any student whose command of English is inadequate for a proper understanding of the course for which he or she has enrolled.
