Our foundation year in social sciences is an extra year of study at the start of your university degree. After successful completion of your foundation year, you can access the first year of a wide range of degrees from Cardiff School of Sport & Health Sciences.

 

The foundation year is intended to prepare you for your following years of studying, offering you the chance to strengthen your skills, knowledge and confidence.

 

We welcome you to study a foundation year if you’re from a variety of different backgrounds and experiences, including:

• If you’re unsure which subject you’d like to specialise in
• If you don’t have the right combination of subjects for direct entry into Year 1
• If you don’t meet the expected requirements for direct entry into Year 1
• If you’re returning to education after some time away
