The International Year One programme is designed for students who are academically ready to start undergraduate study but need additional academic and language support during the transition.
Unlike foundation programmes, International Year One is equivalent to the first year of a bachelor’s degree. The difference lies in how it is taught — with enhanced academic guidance, structured learning, and embedded English support.
Why students choose International Year One:
- Progress straight to Year Two of a bachelor’s degree
- Save time compared to foundation routes
- Receive stronger academic support than direct entry
- Adapt gradually to independent university learning
This option is especially suitable for students who are confident in their subject choice but want a supported start rather than an overwhelming first year.
