Our Foundation Program’s Standard and Intensive formats are offered for students who need a relative amount of preparation

Course structure overview**

- A total of 10 different subjects is required to graduate – Academic English Skills (2), plus 8 academic subjects.
- Typically, you study A subjects in your first semester and B subjects in your final semester. This does not mean that
the A subjects are a prerequisite for B subjects. For some subjects, you could study the B subject before the A subject.
- The academic subjects are studied as majors and minors. A major is when you study both the A and B in a subject.
A minor is when you study only the A or only the B of a subject.
- You must study at least 3 majors and can then choose either 2 minors or a 4th major to make up your 8 academic subjects.
