What our students say

Aziz from Saudi Arabia

Following his path to a graduate degree at Arizona State University

With Kaplan, nothing is impossible. They stayed in touch with me for the whole journey, from submitting a complete application to enrolling at the university. They helped me a lot along the way and they are still helping me to this day.

Kashaf from Bahrain

Foundation Certificate, leading to an undergraduate degree at the University of Brighton

I liked the College’s location and also the wide variety of programmes available. We are learning many useful things that will help us at university. I would like to improve my confidence and achieve good grades to help me progress to my degree.

Talal from Bahrain

Foundation Certificate, leading to an undergraduate degree at the University of Liverpool

What I like most about University of Liverpool International College are the lectures and seminars – they take place all over campus which gives you the chance to discover the University and meet new people. I like that the classes have a small number of students which allows more interaction with the tutors.
