What is a Foundation Degree?

Our Foundation Degrees give you the unique chance to study on programmes that are both academic and vocational. You will benefit from the convenience of studying at a local college, with the prestige of accreditation by the University of East London. You can even convert a Foundation Degree into a full degree by studying at university for an additional year.

What our students say:

Hasmita Mehta took the Foundation Degree for Teaching Assistants at Redbridge College after a friend recommended the course and the College to her. Redbridge College was ideally located to enable Hasmita to study in the evenings whilst continuing to look after her two young children.

Having now achieved a BA Honours Degree at UEL, Hasmita is taking some time out before starting teaching in September 2010. Hasmita says, "I would recommend Redbridge College to anyone who, like myself, is returning to study. The staff at Redbridge College are just so supportive."
