About Clinical Foundation Studies in Queen Mary University of London

This one-year foundation programme offers international students – who may not have had the chance to study A-level equivalent qualifications – the chance to achieve the right academic level, as well as English language and academic skills, to study an undergraduate degree.

It provides a basic introduction to Clinical Medicine and Dentistry as well as Biology, Maths, Physics and Chemistry tuition which is equivalent to A-levels, if you do not already have A-level equivalents.
