Ipswich, the heart of Suffolk, is known as one of England's oldest towns, for its regenerated waterfront and the University of Suffolk. About 1-1.5 hours from London by train, it offers an affordable, calm life.
Ask NGGlobal's advisers about the current language school options in Ipswich. Programs at the University of Suffolk and language courses in the area are among the options.
Short programs last 1-4 weeks, while long-term programs run from 12 weeks to a year. Most schools use a system of 8-12 levels, and on an intensive course you should allow about 4-8 weeks per level.
Language school fees in Ipswich depend on course intensity, the type of school and the length of your booking. The weekly price falls for longer bookings, and extra discounts apply for early bookings and promotions. Applying through NGGlobal lets you compare the schools' current offers in one place.
Language schools do not require a diploma or any prior knowledge of the language. After you complete the enrolment form and pay the deposit, the school sends you a confirmation. For programs that need a student visa, the licensed school issues a CAS for your visa application.
For short courses, booking 4-6 weeks ahead is enough. Because visa appointments and paperwork take time, we recommend that students applying from Turkey plan at least 2-3 months ahead. Schools may close for 1-2 weeks over Christmas and New Year.
Turkish citizens need a visa to enter the UK. A Standard Visitor visa is enough for language courses of up to 6 months, and English courses of 6-11 months can be taken on a Short-term Study visa. Applications are made through visa application centres in Turkey.
Most language students do not have the right to work, so plan your budget without relying on income from work. If you plan language study as the first step towards a UK university, part-time work becomes possible during your degree.
Homestay is the most common option in Ipswich, and schools usually place students with families who live within easy reach of the school.
Living costs in Ipswich are lower than in London and the south of England, and rent and daily costs suit a student budget.
Buses serve Ipswich, and the centre is easy to walk. Trains make it easy to reach other cities.
Ipswich 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.
Ipswich is 3 hours behind Turkey in winter and 2 hours behind while British Summer Time applies (late March to late October).
NGGlobal advisers give students planning a language course in Ipswich free support with comparing schools, price quotes, accommodation and visa documents.
