These courses are designed to ensure that
students have the factual knowledge, study skills and a sufficient
command of the English language to enable them to embark on
a full-time undergraduate course at a British university.
Students coming from China will need to have
completed a minimum of 1 year at high school
in order to join this course. Most British universities will
not accept students under the age of 18. Foundation courses
offer students a route to a wide range of British and other
university degree courses as an alternative to A-levels.
