The Foundation Year is a one-year full-time programme that provides an entry route to the BSc Actuarial Science, the BSc Data Analytics and Actuarial Science and the BSc Finance with Actuarial Science for UK students. The Foundation Year is designed to prepare you for the subjects that will be covered in more depth throughout the rest of your degree. Part of City, University of London, Bayes is ranked amongst the top 6 business schools in the UK* The Foundation Year in Actuarial Science aims to provide students with a knowledge of Mathematics, Probability and Statistics, Accounting and Finance, Economics, IT and Computing sufficient to enable them to undertake an undergraduate degree in the area of Actuarial Science. Upon successful completion of the Foundation Year you will progress on to the BSc Actuarial Science degree.

It should be noted though that you will not be able to transfer onto any of the other undergraduate programmes at Bayes. The Actuarial Science degrees provides students with the skills to start their actuarial career, with the added flexibility of allowing students to alternatively use these skills to enter risk management, investment management or financial analysis upon graduation. This degree can provide exemptions from subjects CM1, CM2, CS1, CS2, CB1 and CB2 of the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries’ examinations depending on which degree you choose. *Financial Times European Business School Ranking 2022
