Hertfordshire International College

Hertfordshire International College (HIC) offers international students a direct, supportive pathway into undergraduate and postgraduate degrees at the University of Hertfordshire. Located on the university’s de Havilland Campus in Hatfield, HIC provides foundation, first-year, and pre-master’s programs with full access to university facilities from day one.

The college offers three main programs:

• Foundation: For students who need to meet undergraduate entry requirements.
• International Year One: Equivalent to the first year of a bachelor’s degree, with progression into Year Two.
• Pre-Master’s: For students preparing for postgraduate study.

HIC students are fully integrated into university life from the start. They have access to all University of Hertfordshire facilities, including libraries, sports centres, student societies, and the Students’ Union. The de Havilland Campus offers modern teaching spaces, on-site accommodation, and a vibrant student atmosphere, all just 25 minutes by train from central London.

These programs cover a wide range of subject areas, including Business, Engineering, Computer Science, Life Sciences, Law, Art and Design, and Health. Courses are delivered in small, supportive classes with personalised academic guidance. The curriculum is designed to build subject knowledge, critical thinking, and English language proficiency, ensuring students are fully prepared for university-level study.
