Pre-sessional English Programme

At BIMM Music Institute, we’re passionate about helping students thrive in the creative industries, and strong English is key to that journey.

That’s why we’ve partnered with Oxford International Digital Institute (OIDI) to offer an online Pre-sessional English Programme for international students.

What is Pre-sessional English?

Pre-sessional courses are for international students who hold an offer to study a degree at BIMM Music Institute and need to meet their English language requirement. They build your academic and language skills and prepare you to succeed on your course.

If you pass your Pre-sessional course at the required level, you can progress onto your degree at BIMM Music Institute.
