Dover, famous for its white cliffs and medieval castle, is England's gateway to Europe. A port town about 1.5 hours from France by ferry, it offers a calm place to study, with schools such as Dover College.
Ask NGGlobal's advisers about the current language school options in Dover. Programs at Dover College and language schools in nearby Canterbury are among the options.
In Dover you can book short courses of 1-2 weeks. On an intensive program, one English level usually takes 8-12 weeks. Reaching the IELTS score universities ask for usually needs a 6-12 month plan, depending on your starting level.
The biggest factor in the price is the length of your booking: the weekly fee drops noticeably for bookings of 12 weeks or more. Besides tuition, budget for items such as the registration fee, materials and the student visa and health insurance. NGGlobal students can take advantage of the schools' seasonal offers.
At most language schools courses start every Monday, though complete beginners may have set start dates. For programs that require a visa, we recommend applying at least 2-3 months ahead. July and August are the busiest months.
For the visa application, the school's acceptance letter, proof of payment, bank statements, accommodation details and evidence of ties to Turkey (work, school or family) are important. Long-term and academic programs use a Student visa application based on the CAS issued by the school.
Working in breach of visa rules can have serious consequences, such as visa cancellation and refusal of future applications. NGGlobal helps you plan a realistic budget for the course and living costs.
Accommodation in Dover is usually in schools' boarding houses or with host families in the area.
Living costs in Dover are lower than in London and the south of England, and rent and daily costs suit a student budget.
Dover is a small place that you can get around on foot or by bus, with train and bus links to nearby towns.
Dover lies in one of England's driest and sunniest regions, with mild summers and cool winters.
Direct flights from Istanbul to London Heathrow (LHR), Gatwick (LGW) and Stansted (STN) take about 4 hours; the train from London takes about 1-1.5 hours.
Because the UK uses daylight saving time, the difference changes with the season: Dover is 2 hours behind Turkey in summer and 3 hours behind in winter. When it is 12:00 in Turkey, it is 09:00 in Dover in winter and 10:00 in summer.
