Why study a foundation year course?
A foundation year is the first year of a four year course which:
- provides a great introduction to studying at university and to a subject you want to explore
- offers you a highly supportive environment where you can develop the self-confidence, knowledge, skills, and understanding for further study
- takes your individual circumstance into account.
