About This Course
The University of Manchester normally requires A Levels (or equivalent) for entry to a bachelor's degree. Some overseas qualifications are accepted, but most international students must study a foundation year before progressing to the first year of a degree at Manchester.
The International Foundation (Biosciences) provides guaranteed progression to a wide range of degrees at Manchester, subject to the academic and English grades you achieve.
On successful completion, you will graduate with a nationally recognised Level 3 Foundation Certificate, which is accepted by many top universities in the UK. That means you will have other options if you are unable to progress to Manchester, or you change your mind during your studies.
International Application Deadlines
For September 2023, the application deadline is 4 August 2023 and offers must be accepted by 18 August 2023.
