BSc (Hons) Biology with Foundation Year

University of Greenwich International College

Life-science undergraduate study that starts with Year Zero biology is the BSc (Hons) Biology with Foundation Year at Greenwich. Weekday full-time teaching is listed for the January 2027 intake on this pathway. Five GCSEs at grades A*–C is the Year Zero bar, with applications reviewed case by case rather than by a published UCAS tariff alone. AF Education refuses to invent laboratory inventories, field trips or overseas placements here. Keep this title apart from human nutrition, sport science or forensic foundation pages when shortlisting. AF Education gives England-resident UK home students free help with the application and with Student Finance England.

About BSc (Hons) Biology with Foundation Year

University of Greenwich International College lists BSc (Hons) Biology with Foundation Year as an full-time weekday bachelor's at Greenwich, London (Bounty House, Creek Road, SE8 3DE).

A biology bachelor's with a foundation year suits applicants who want life-science undergraduate study and need a preparatory stage first. That can include career changers and returners to education.

Among UGIC life-science foundation routes, keep biology separate from human nutrition, sport and exercise science, and sociology courses at the same Greenwich campus. AF Education advisers can help you shortlist and explore Student Finance England eligibility using official guidance for your circumstances — never treated as a guarantee of funding.

Life Science categorisation is how this biology row is tagged for browsing filters; the award title itself remains Biology with Foundation Year. Use that title when speaking to advisers so nobody routes you to a sport or nutrition pathway by mistake, and confirm intake timing before you submit documents.
