Art and design foundation courses

Many students complete a one-year art foundation course after Year 12/13 studies to help them progress to higher education.

Applications for art foundation courses should be made direct to the university or college in which you are interested (the institution will supply its own application form).

Art foundation courses are classified as further education so students taking the course are not eligible for a student loan. However, no tuition fees are charged to home and EU students under 19 years of age at courses run by a local authority. Courses which are offered by independent, fee-paying colleges may charge. Please check this with the college before applying.

All information displayed in this section is for guidance only. We recommend that you obtain a prospectus from your chosen university or college before applying.
