Hi @sdfsrgt654
Firstly, congratulations on receiving an offer to study Business with a foundation year here at Surrey! Which business course is this for? While I understand it might not have been what you were expecting, going on a foundation year journey can be a rewarding experience, paving the way for a full degree programme.

I would describe it as an extra year dedicated to building your skills and knowledge, ensuring you’re fully prepared for the first year of your degree programme. At Surrey Business School, we inspire young professionals to bring about positive change in businesses and society, locally and globally. At Surrey, you’ll not only receive a top level of education but also have an unlimited number of opportunities to grow professionally and thrive.

Have you had a chance to visit the campus? We have a few offer holder days coming up for Business students. I highly recommend visiting to explore the campus, accommodation and meet some of your cohort/lecturers. We have two offer holder days for Business coming up on 13th March and 23rd March.

Over 95% of our graduates are in work or further education after graduation. We are ranked 12th overall in the UK by the Guardian for Graduate Outcomes. We also offer a placement year to all Surrey Business School undergraduate students, which can be a fantastic way to build your understanding of the industry and boost your CV for future graduate prospects.

I hope that helps! Please feel free to reach out again if you have further questions.

All the best,
Daniel
