NCUK stands as a unique consortium in the realm of international higher education, comprising leading universities committed to ensuring international students have guaranteed access to university education and supporting their academic success. Recognised not only by NCUK universities but also by numerous other institutions across the UK, including those in the prestigious Russell Group (akin to the USA's Ivy League), NCUK qualifications are also internationally acclaimed.

With a track record of facilitating over 35,000 international students in securing guaranteed access to leading UK universities, NCUK is dedicated to broadening university access on a global scale and ensuring the success of its students. NCUK's qualifications, which are developed collaboratively by its member universities, are delivered through an extensive global network of Study Centres.

These centres cater to students aspiring to enrol in some of the world's top universities. The range of NCUK qualifications is designed to meet the needs of international students at various academic levels, encompassing pre-university, undergraduate, and postgraduate pathway programmes.

Successfully completing an NCUK qualification assures students a place at one of the universities within the consortium. This provides them with access to a wide array of degree courses and lays a solid foundation for their future academic achievements.
