Students who study British Foundation in Form 5 can graduate one year earlier than their classmates. There are 160 universities in the UK, and only 7 do not have Foundation . Professional subjects such as law and medical schools all have Foundation . You can inquire about the details of British Foundation from Maxway Education , because

  • Some majors or some UK university foundations require completion of Form 6; or
  • For some majors, completing Foundation requires additional requirements such as an interview before you can advance to Year 1 of the relevant major.

d. International Year 1 is suitable for students in Form 6 or above who want to study business, architecture, engineering, psychology, law, tourism, politics, life sciences, computer science, etc. at famous British universities but whose grades, IELTS or elective subjects are not so good.

The key point is that both International Year 1 and direct admission to a UK university require three years to complete a degree. You are welcome to inquire with Maxway Education whether your preferred UK university and major offers International Year 1.
