Important Information
Information provided by the University such as in presentations, University brochures
and the University website, is accurate at the time of first disclosure. However,
courses, University services and content of publications remain subject to change.
Changes may be necessary to comply with the requirements of accrediting bodies
or to keep courses contemporary through updating practices or areas of study.
Circumstances may arise outside the reasonable control of the University, leading
to required changes. Such circumstances include, industrial action, unexpected
student numbers, significant staff illness (where a course is reliant upon a persons
expertise), unexpected lack of funding, severe weather, fire, civil disorder, political
unrest, government restrictions and serious concern with regard to the transmission of
serious illness making a course unsafe to deliver. After a student has taken up a place
with the University, the University will look to give early notification of any changes
and try to minimise their impact, offering suitable alternative arrangements or forms
of compensation where it believes there is a fair case to do so. Offers of a place to
study at the University will provide up to date information on courses. The latest key
information on courses, entry requirements and fees can be found at
www.leeds.ac.uk/coursefinder. Please check this website before making any decisions.

International Foundation Year 2014, BA Fashion Marketing

The University of Leeds International Foundation Year provided

me with a really solid academic foundation to progress successfully
on to my current Bachelors degree programme. I was taught
modules in drawing, Adobe and design on the foundation and this
has given me a head start on some of my coursemates and helped
me achieve good academic grades. My English has improved and
given me greater confidence to perform well in academic essay
writing and presentation skills.

I made three of my best friends in the International Foundation Year

and we are all now studying undergraduate courses at Leeds.
The facilities at the University are wonderful. The Edge is one of my
favourite places to visit. It has the best swimming pool I have ever
used and it was a training centre by the Chinese team ahead of the
2012 Olympics!

Leeds as a university city is vibrant with student life. It is not too

small or too big. There are different universities and colleges and
it feels youthful and fresh and it is a city with lots of things to do
without spending too much money.

International Foundation Year 2014,
BEng Petroleum Engineering

The staff of the International Foundation Year, which includes the

head of the programme, professors, tutors, coordinators, and social
assistants, were extremely supportive and ready to help at all times.
I had regular meetings with an assigned personal tutor throughout the
year to discuss any issues I faced during my studies. They also helped
me with my questions, enquires and concerns about my degree which
I was about to start in the following academic year.

I learned a lot in the International Foundation Year which helped me

to do well in my degree. As an international student, some of the most
important things I learned were the UKs academic system, UKs
academic writing and referencing which I didnt know about before
starting the programme.

In my opinion, the things I learned during the year made me more

familiar with the Universitys system, teaching methods, and marking
criteria, which made me more confident and comfortable in my
first year than other students. In addition, having friends from the
International Foundation Year in my course and being in the city for a
whole year made my progression a lot easier than new students.

The topics covered during the International Foundation Year

were stimulating, keeping students with a variety of backgrounds
interested, and challenging enough so that they pushed themselves
to improve on their skills.

When you compare the work you did at the beginning of the
programme against your work at the end, you can easily see the
improvement in your knowledge and skills without even noticing it
happen to you during the year.

I loved my time studying at the University of Leeds so much that

after completing the International Foundation Year and my BSc,
I ended up doing an MSc and a PhD. Ive just started working as
a researcher for a company in Oxford, a new experience for me
after university life. This time however, I have had the experience
of knowing what to do and what to expect all starting from the
