Courses to prepare you for undergraduate study
A Levels
A Levels are British qualifications, accepted by all universities in the UK and recognised in the USA and Australia. This gives you a world of choice. Students typically study three or four subjects with exams at the end of two years.
Foundation
A one-year course for international students that builds specialist subject knowledge and language and study skills. It is more focussed than A Levels making it good preparation for university. It is recognised for entry on to a range of degree programmes at 100 universities in the UK.
International Year One
An International Year One course is a one-year course equal to the first year of an undergraduate degree. Taught in Brighton and London, this course prepares you for the second year of a related degree at university.
Pre-Foundation programme
The Pre-Foundation course is three terms of extra study, designed to develop the skills you need to progress to the next step of your education. Giving you the opportunity to get to grips with the core principals of your chosen Foundation programme, this course additionally offers language and academic support.
English Language Programmes
If you don’t meet the English language entry requirements for the A Level, Foundation or International Year One programme, you can first study one to three terms of English speaking and writing.
Courses to prepare you for postgraduate study
Pre-Sessional Preparation Programme for PhD
With the Pre-Sessional Preparation Programme for PhD you’ll develop the English language skills needed to complete a PhD application for submission to one of our University partners.
