Foundation Year Sample Clauses

Foundation Year. 0 Programmes We have instigated distinctive ‘Year 0’ alternative Foundation Year pathways into key professional and scientific programmes, including Medicine, Dentistry, Pharmacy, Life Sciences, Physical Sciences and Engineering. These students are 1.5 times more likely to come from low participation neighbourhoods compared to other entrance routes19. To ensure their continued attractiveness to students from underrepresented backgrounds we are investing in an attractive new package of fee waivers and bursaries (see Section 3.4.1) for these programmes.

Foundation Year. For students following the Foundation Year at Guildford College, as part of their University degree programme (Level 0), a fee set at the basic level of £1200 pa will be charged for this year. The Foundation Year is an integrated year taken by a minority of students on Engineering and Science Degree programmes, to prepare them for entry to Level HE1 of the Undergraduate programme. Because the fee for this programme is set at the basic amount, students do not, during the Foundation Year, qualify for the bursaries or scholarships set out in Sections 4 and 5 below. However, on successful entry to Level HE1, they become eligible for scholarships and bursaries.

Foundation Year. The University is currently developing a Foundation Year offer, with the aim of launching a pilot Foundation Year programme for 2018/19 entry. We believe this development could be of particular benefit to students who meet WP criteria and has the potential to particularly support mature learners in accessing higher education. The development of the Foundation Year programme is still in its early stages. However, the University is ensuring that accessibility and support for under-represented groups is at the core of its development. For example, we are exploring the potential for additional financial support for students who meet WP criteria, the potential for Foundation Year students to be guaranteed accommodation for two years, and the inclusion of a core skills development module that covers areas such as critical thinking and research methods. Student Services Student Services provide a range of specifically targeted support for students, including:  Student Peer Mentors who visit campus accommodation to support arrival and transition, with private sector support also available.  An overview of University support via the ‘Support for Groups’ section of the webpage at: xxxxx://xxx.xxxxxx.xx.xx/ask/ Student Services also have a number of dedicated support initiatives for mature students, including:  Mature Student Officer; a dedicated point of contact to respond to mature student needs and feedback.  A dedicated online knowledge bank of frequently asked questions, which can be filtered by searching for the term ‘mature’; xxxxx://xxx.xxxxxx.xx.xx/faqs/GuestFaq.aspx?CCTC=SSC&UTYP=STU  Mature café event on arrival; to facilitate networking with other mature students. Surrey has a notable proportion of mature students, with 15% of students who enrolled in 2016 aged 21 or over.  Student Peer Mentor support may also be particularly relevant to mature students who can be more likely to live off campus, rent privately or own their own home.
