If it’s your ambition to go to university in the UK, then you should consider taking your A-levels first. Although UK universities do accept other entrance qualifications, the admissions system is geared towards A-levels.

While A-levels are important for admission to university, they also provide advantages later on. A-levels and their grade levels – are widely recognised by employers around the world. A strong set of A-level results, combined with your degree, will help you stand out from other candidates. This is a great way to demonstrate consistent performance and your ability to meet international standards of excellence.

Given these benefits, it’s not surprising that A-levels are not only the best way to make the transition from school to university, but are the best way to prepare yourself for a bright and successful future.

Most foundation programmes offer you very limited choices, often to just one university. Cardiff Academy’s International Foundation Year gives students access to a wide range of universities and degree courses worldwide.
