International study at the University of Brighton

Academic preparation courses

Improve your academic qualifications for entry

The University of Brighton's International College can help you if your academic qualifications do not qualify you for the university course that you want to do. These are known as academic pathway or university foundation courses.

If you successfully complete a relevant foundation certificate, diploma or pre-masters programme at the International College you are guaranteed a place in your chosen course at the university.

The International College is on our campus and offers a preparation programme for most of our university courses. Our programmes cover the following subject areas:

  • Business, hospitality, tourism and social sciences
  • Computing and creative technology
  • Science and engineering

English language tuition can be part of these academic preparation programmes.
