NCUK offers a variety of pre-university programmes for international students looking to achieve their ambition of studying abroad.
International Foundation Year
A qualification designed with our university partners to prepare you for first-year entry to undergraduate degree courses, the International Foundation Year is our most popular programme for students. Studying in small classes with NCUK in your home country before you start your degree will give you the confidence you need before you start the degree course.
University Access Programme in Business
The University Access Programme in Business is a one-year pre-university preparation programme designed to help enhance your English language and study skills to progress to an undergraduate degree at a UK university. Successful programme completion will provide you with direct entry into the first year of a business-related degree course at an NCUK University.
International Year One
The International Year One allows you to study the first year of an undergraduate degree at an NCUK Study Centre, locally or in the UK, and progress directly into Year 2 of a degree at university.
International Year Two in Business Management
The International Year Two in Business Management is a second-year undergraduate equivalent qualification that builds knowledge and skills in the Business Management field. It prepares and qualifies you for entry to the third year (FHEQ Level 6) of a range of undergraduate degree courses including business management, marketing, events management, and many more at Liverpool John Moores University, the University of Salford or Sheffield Hallam University.

Our range of Master’s Preparation qualifications will fully prepare you for a master’s degree at a world-class university. Whether you are looking for a short Master’s Pre-Sessional course or a longer Master’s Preparation course, our qualifications will equip you with the necessary academic and English language skills to get into your chosen university and help you succeed once you get there.
