Unlock your potential at a world-leading university with a truly international student community.
Applicants from Latvia are normally not required to complete a foundation course.
We offer foundation courses for international students who are not qualified for direct entry to our undergraduate degree courses.
These courses are available at the University of Nottingham International College, just next to University Park Campus, in partnership with Kaplan International Colleges.

Applications and enquiries for these courses are handled by Kaplan and the college.
