International Foundation Year Programmes

You may be one of the International (Non-EU) students who need to meet the academic levels required for entry into one of our degree courses at University College Cork (UCC). If that’s the case, then you will need to complete a Foundation Year course.

We have great partners, both in Ireland and around the globe. Explore this page and choose the Foundation Year course to suit you and start your journey to UCC. See the links below for more information on our Foundation Year course providers.

Note: if you are an EU/EFTA/UK applicant, please note this type of programme is not recogonised as an entry route. This entry route is for International Non-EU applicants.
