Business with a Foundation Year is only available to students performing at a very high standard in a chosen sport, who wish to study at Loughborough, but do not have the required qualifications due to sporting commitments. It is ideal for students who wish to combine their sports training with academic study. The course enables entry into any of our accounting, finance, business and management courses for students that are classed as elite athletes by our performance sport centre and have not got the qualifications required for direct entry. Completing the foundation year will enable you to progress onto the first year of your chosen degree course, provided the relevant progression criteria are met. During the year you will undertake core modules in Business, Psychology with Sociology and a Mathematics module, and choose options from Economics and Sport Science. You will be taught through a combination of lectures, seminars, workshops and tutorials. Our foundation course is taught in-house by University staff. As a student on the course you will be a member the University, with full access to the Students’ Union, clubs, societies, sports facilities and support departments. Completing a foundation year can be a real attribute to your overall degree success. It not only opens doors to courses that may have previously looked closed, but also provides a sound base on which to establish a successful academic career. Many who have completed the foundation year have also said how beneficial it was to them in supporting their transition into University life.. Course code- N1FY
