Program Overview

University of Exeter International Study Centre

Prepare for entry to Year 1 of an undergraduate degree at the University of Exeter

Prepare for entry to Year 1 of an undergraduate degree at the University of Exeter. Choose from 150+ subject areas, ranging from accounting, business and management to biological and environmental sciences, computer science, engineering and humanities.

An accelerated 2-term option is available to students with a higher level of English – or choose the 4-term option for extra English language support. You can also take the opportunity to complete a work placement or study in another country as part of your degree, providing you meet the entry requirements.

If you have a higher English language level, you may qualify for our iCAS – integrated Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) – program. Combining your pathway and degree in a single study plan, you’ll only need one visa for the duration of your studies and can apply with alternative English language qualifications to IELTS.
