    Foundation Year Programs in Intensive English

    Prerequisites can make enrolling in higher-education programs difficult. Although students may have taken courses in the past, if these classes do not fall within a certain category, they may not fulfill the entry requirements for higher degrees. A foundation year can be taken to meet the requirements for the programs students desire.

    What is a foundation year in intensive English? Usually intended for students who do not have a firm grasp on the English language, this program typically prepares them to enter programs taught in said language. Courses such as oral and written communications, mathematics, and statistics generally help students gain a better understanding of the English language. They may also study cultural diversity to deepen their understanding of how the world functions.

    During a foundation year in intensive English, students usually develop traits such as communication, research, and critical thinking. Strong communication skills can enable students to make both personal and professional connections, while research and critical-thinking abilities may help students understand program material, potentially leading to a wider variety of future job opportunities.

    Every university is different when it comes to tuition costs, so the price of a foundation year varies depending on which school offers the program. Although most of these programs take a year or less to complete, the best way to find out how much it costs to enroll is usually to contact prospective schools directly.

    Students who have a deep knowledge of English typically have the opportunity to pursue many careers. Those who speak English as a second language may become business managers or sales representatives. Others decide to pursue positions as journalists, while many find work as digital copywriters or editorial assistants.  Students can also usually find jobs as web content managers or professional proofreaders. Careers as editors may also be available.

    Foundation year programs can typically be taken either online or on campus, depending on a student’s preferences. Taking classes remotely can be a good way to maintain flexible schedules.
