From the 2010/2011 academic year a certain level of English knowledge (IELTS 6.0 or equivalent) will be an official requirement by the University of Wales in order to be matriculated but it is not a requirement for the admission to Domus Academy.
According to this, our suggestions for the non native English language students who will apply for one of the Domus Academy Master Courses and will be interested in getting the University of Wales validation, is to improve their English before coming to Domus Academy (they can get the IELTS 6.0 there).
The student could also take our English Language Support Programme or, another option is to join the IELTS preparation course at the British Council here in Milan.
The
Master course is validated and
awarded by the University of Wales and has a value of 180 credits.

Or write to:

The Domus Academy administration of the Validation Process costs
650 Euro
(validation fee), which is not included in the Master's fee. Those
students who are interested in getting the Validation, will transfer to
DA the Validation fee
within one month from the beginning of the Master.
Shouldn't the University of Wales validate the student, Domus Academy will refund to the student the whole fee.
