The International University Foundation Programme (IUFP) is a one-year pre-university course designed to prepare students for direct entry into the first year of leading universities around the world — without needing A-Levels or other extended programs.

Through an exclusive partnership with London College of Business and Law (LCBL), students in East Africa can now access this fast-track pathway to top-ranked universities in the UK, Canada, USA, Australia, Dubai, and many other countries.

Successful IUFP students receive direct admission into the first year of their degree course at renowned universities like Aston University, University of Kent, University of Hertfordshire, Greenwich, Bradford, Portsmouth, Sussex, Chester, Keele, Exeter, Leeds, Bournemouth, Brighton, Birmingham, Essex, Nottingham, TEDI-London, City University London, Westminster, Bristol, UWE Bristol, Glasgow, York, Cranfield, Queen Mary, Liverpool etc

IUFP is ideal for two key groups of students:

Group I: GCE Ordinary Level Students (Ages 14–16) If you're currently undertaking your GCE O-Level, you don't need to go through the traditional two-year A-Level path. With just one year in IUFP, you can qualify for direct entry into first-year university programs abroad.

Group II: KCSE Form 4 Leavers (With 5+ Credits) If you've completed Form 4 in Kenya and have at least five credits, you're eligible.

What most students and parents don’t know is this: Most international universities require you to complete a foundation year before you're accepted into a degree program. IUFP lets you fulfill that requirement right here in Kenya, saving you money while preparing you academically and socially for global university life.
