Preamble:

Foundation Programs are widely accepted by many Higher Education institutions as an entry bridging component. In order to assist prospective students who do not have ‘A’ level (or did not reach the requisite grades at ‘A’ level, note that this option is not open to Ugandans, a Mature-Age Examination Entry Certificate, the IB qualification, or expatriate students from neighboring countries who did not achieve a C++ in the school-leaving examination in their home country, the foundation program will bridge the gap between school and university.

This innovative program is carefully formulated between the support skills needed for academic life and academic subjects needed to sustain university studies. The mix of courses offered on the program will set prospective students on a path to achieving their goals of obtaining a university education.
