Why Pre-University at INTI?

Applying to a university set in a foreign country can be a highly stressful process with a host of rules and regulations to comply with and multiple procedures to undertake during the application process. The experienced University Placement Services team helps to make the whole process a more pleasant and less stressful experience. As a complimentary service for INTI students, the team can help with the following challenges facing students and offer the following services:

• Assistance with the application process for scholarships and university placements along with preliminary budgeting for living abroad
• Professional advice on selecting the best academic institution to fit a student’s needs
• Advice to craft an effective study plan to meet the English entry requirements for a selected academic programme
• Regular mock interview workshops to enable students to practice their skills before undertaking an actual university placement interview
• Assistance with facilitating a letter of recommendation for university applications for eligible students
• Special talks by invited speakers from overseas universities on succeeding in the university application process

A pioneer addition to the INTI Pre-University programme, students are able to volunteer for internships with accredited partners and learn more about the working world in a safe, supervised manner.

Student performance is also regularly monitored with an early warning system set in place to help correct their course if they fall behind or encounter challenges in their studies. Students who require additional assistance can also consult with their lecturers for four hours per week. For those who need further help, INTI has also provisioned Peer Assisted Study Sessions (PASS) where senior students help to guide academically poor students in order to improve their performance.

The INTI Pre-University programme prepares you for excellence by offering students a vast array of extra-curricular activities that help to develop the 4C’s – Communication, Critical Thinking Skills, Collaboration and Creativity – all of which are required skills for success in higher education and later in life. The intake proactively organised several of the following activities:

An off-campus excursion that expands a student’s horizons as well as their knowledge of a subject with direct hands-on experiences which are more impactful than purely academic class work alone. It is considered a critical aspect of the INTI Pre-University course.
