NCUK

We are a founder university member of the Northern Consortium (NCUK). NCUK has been providing international students with a pathway onto UK university programmes since 1987.

The University of Manchester is a proud University Partner of NCUK. NCUK (external website) is a consortium of 16 leading universities dedicated to giving international students guaranteed access to universities and helping students succeed when they get there. Since 1987, NCUK has helped over 30,000 international students gain guaranteed access to university. 

NCUK offers foundation and graduate pathway programmes, which are taught and quality assured by its global network of Study Centres around the world, with more than 50 Study Centres in more than 18 countries. If you pass your NCUK Qualification, you are guaranteed a place at an NCUK Partner University.

All NCUK qualifications include unique language and study skills preparation modules, English for Academic Purposes (EAP). These modules will equip you with the skills you need to succeed in your studies at a UK university.

NCUK also has a dedicated University Admissions and Placement Services team, who will support you at all stages throughout your university application process.
