We offer pathways to university that create opportunities for a wide range of high-potential international students. Depending on a student’s academic and/or English results, they may choose to study either a Foundation program or International Year One.

International Year One is the equivalent to the first year of university at the partner institution. It is sometimes known as a diploma, university transfer program, or similar. Upon successful completion of the International Year One program, students become eligible to enter the second year of the corresponding degree at the partner university.

International Year One programs teach essential subject matter, build life and employment skills, and improve English language abilities. The program introduces students to university life in a highly supportive environment dedicated to their academic success, and with more attention from instructors and support staff. Our partner colleges are closely aligned with university partners, with most colleges located on the university partner campus. This gives students access to university facilities from their first day.
