A Business & Management course like this typically moves from foundational theory to applied practice and specialist depth. In the early stage, you'll usually study how organisations work, their structure, culture and management practices, alongside core marketing principles and business economics. You'll develop data literacy for business analysis. Mid-course, you progress to operations, supply chain management, organisational behaviour and strategy, exploring how to design processes, lead teams and analyse competitive advantage.

International students
What applying to West London College from outside the UK involves: fees, English, visa, funding and living costs.
Tuition fees
International tuition is set per course by West London College; international fees are typically £12,000–£30,000/year for classroom subjects and higher for lab/clinical ones. You’re not eligible for UK Tuition Fee or Maintenance Loans, so plan for fees plus living costs upfront.
English language
Most UK undergraduate courses ask for around IELTS 6.0–6.5 (no band below 5.5–6.0), or an accepted equivalent. If you’re just short, most universities run a pre-sessional English course that counts towards the requirement.
Student visa
You’ll usually need a Student visa (Student Route). After you accept an offer the university issues a CAS; you then show funds for fees plus about £1,023–£1,334/month living costs and pay the Immigration Health Surcharge for NHS access.
Scholarships & funding
Many universities offer international/global scholarships (often £2,000–£6,000/yr), check West London College’s funding pages.
Living costs
Budget roughly £1,100–£1,400/month outside London and £1,400–£1,800/month in London for rent, food and travel; the figure also matters for your visa.
Working while you study
A Student visa usually allows up to 20 hours/week in term time and full-time in holidays, useful alongside study, though not something to rely on for fees.
Visa rules and fees change. Always confirm the current requirements with West London College and gov.uk before you apply.
