Numbers-first returners often shortlist the BSc Accounting and Finance with Foundation Year on the University of Bradford International College pathway. The foundation stage rebuilds study skills, academic writing, numeracy and core business ideas before you tackle financial reporting, management accounting, business law, taxation and related finance themes. Full-time weekday teaching is listed, with September 2026 currently shown as an upcoming intake. Treat professional-body exemptions as something to verify with Bradford for your year — AF Education will not invent ACCA or CIMA maps.
