What is a foundation course:
If you are an international student finishing your high school exams, have completed less than 13 years of education, and want to take your first degree in Europe, you will need to study a foundation course. International students who need additional English language and academic preparation for entry to Europe university undergraduate programs can take a foundation course for one year.
Foundation programs are for school leavers who have studied a non-British curriculum but wish to pursue a degree at an international university. The foundation course acts as a bridge between your current qualifications and university undergraduate entry requirements and is designed to plug academic gaps, improve your English and familiarise you with Europe life and culture in preparation for university.
