The smart alternative to applying direct for a degree at the University of Glasgow and the easy way to find programs that match your eligibility and aspirations
Glasgow International College (GIC) offers degree preparation courses in partnership with the University of Glasgow. The College enables international students who don’t meet all program requirements to study for a foundation certificate or pre-master’s program before starting at the University. The College is integrated into the University’s main campus, giving students an idea of what to expect when they transition to a degree.
GIC allows you to experience student life in Glasgow, a vibrant and exciting city in Scotland. Your program will be based on the University’s campus, and you have access to student accommodation in the city alongside other international students.
