• The Tawjahiya with good grades and a recognised one-year foundation programme

If you have only completed the Tawjahiya you may be considered for our one-year International Foundation Programme. Students who successfully complete the one-year International Foundation at Middlesex will automatically progress onto a Middlesex degree.

Each course will have specific grade requirements and some will have prerequisites, such as prior study in a specific subject or submission of a portfolio. Full details can be found within the specific course information page.

If you have successfully passed a Diploma from the College of Health Sciences in Bahrain or other higher studies in a relevant subject area you may able eligible for a credit transfer to one of our undergraduate degrees as a transfer student.
