At 狼友社区, we have been teaching our International Foundation Programme for more than 40 years. Our experienced, knowledgeable staff will support you throughout your time at university.

As well as developing your academic abilities, the IFP will help you:

• build your confidence in a UK university environment
• develop critical thinking via small group teaching

• understand how your chosen degree will be taught.

The IFP is split into three pathways:

• Science and Mathematics Pathway
• Business, Management and Finance Pathway
• Social Sciences and Art Pathway.

The pathway you take is determined by the degree you want to study after your foundation year.

Within each pathway, you will study a set of modules closely related to the degree you intend to study as an undergraduate student. The modules you study in your foundation year will prepare you for the modules you will take at undergraduate level.

Each pathway includes compulsory modules that will help you gain the academic and English language skills to succeed at university in the UK.

Completing the IFP will give you access to most undergraduate degrees at the 狼友社区. You will need to meet all the entry requirements for the course you want to study.
