My degree preparation course really helped me improve my knowledge of my subject, and other key skills such as how to lead and how to work well in groups. There are great facilities here, and the level of teaching is really good.
I think the one-to-one sessions I have with my personal tutor are very useful. They give me a chance to focus on my academic strengths, answer any questions I may have, and help me to overcome any weaknesses.
Comfortable classrooms, a range of study resources, an IT lab, WiFi – the College has everything you need to get the most from your studies. You’ll also benefit from secure accommodation, located conveniently close to the College and University campus.
GIC is situated in the leafy West End of Glasgow, attached to the University campus and a short distance from the city centre. The location acts as a great base from which to explore the city’s attractions, and for trips into Scotland’s stunning natural landscapes.
The College is integrated into the University of Glasgow campus, and you will immediately become part of the student community. You’ll also get an ID card to give you access to the University’s many exceptional facilities, including libraries, Students’ Unions and a sports centre.
You will receive extensive support at GIC, from the moment you arrive until your progression to your degree. We offer intensive teaching, along with frequent assessments and one-on-one sessions with your personal tutor. Our teachers bring a wealth of knowledge to the College, and will do everything possible to ensure you achieve success.
