Michelle from Kenya

Foundation Certificate student at the University of Nottingham International College

I chose Kaplan because it has a strong academic reputation and it is also quite flexible in terms of course length. The College facilities are great. Everything is state-of-the-art and it's never too crowded, so all students are accommodated all the time.

Marelis from Panama

Progressed from a Foundation Certificate to a bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering

Taking this course really helped me to get used to the UK's university culture and education system. It meant that when I started my degree, I already knew my way around Nottingham, so I wasn’t stressed and I could just focus on my studies! Our lecturers were so helpful and understanding of international students, and it was lovely to get to know them.

Small city life
