Durham Foundation

I want to do one year at Durham Uni for Foundation Degree (Computer Science) and after I would like to apply to other university.
Do all universities (especially Oxbridge, UCL, Imperial), accept Foundation Degree from other uni?

Thank You :smile:

Not usually. The Durham foundation year (it's not a degree) is designed to lead you into the "standard" courses at Durham.

You would need to ask the specific universities you are interested in, but expect a no.

Durham foundation is a pretty good deal though, nowhere else in the UK can you basically enter with sub-standard qualifications but basically be guaranteed a space at a top world class university,

There's the Lady Margaret Foundation Year at Oxford.

Sounds interesting, but very exclusionary. It mentions that you cannot have attended a non-state school for even one year of your academic career, and only takes in really poor kids and no international students. For normal students, my point still stands.
