"Foundation College did not only offer me the knowledge and skills but also gave me the opportunity to become part of a warm and fun community of teachers and students. It was undoubtedly an invaluable experience full of wonderful people, who helped me reach the academic and professional level I hold today."

The Business and Economics Foundation Course is a one or two year programme for students who aspire to pursue Business Studies, Economics, Marketing, Management, Hotel Management , Information Technology and many other disciplines. It teaches the subjects of Mathematics, Economics, Computer Science and Academic English.
In its one-year version classes run daily from Monday to Friday with an average teaching load of 4 to 5 hours per day from early October to mid-June. The two-year course suits students who prefer a part-time course running over two years in parallel with the final years of Greek school. In part-time mode the course envisages a lighter courseload where students attend classes only two or three evenings a week each year. This course suits school graduates as well as students attending their final or penultimate school year at Greek school.
The Business and Economics Foundation Course is accepted by most British Universities as an entry qualification for degree courses in relevant subjects. As this course follows typical GCE A-level material students must be competent in Mathematics and show interest in Economics to succeed. A good knowledge of English is also required as classes are taught in English. All Foundation College students receive the College's full support in the preparation of their UCAS applications.
