Greenwich Global College
A route to Intermediate equivalence — from as early as Middle.
Pre-University Foundation · Levels 3, 4 and 5 · IBCC recognised
Start where you are. Finish university-ready.
What this is, precisely
A Pakistani qualification, certified through the technical boards and recognised by IBCC. It is not a UK awarding-body qualification and carries no UCAS points. What it carries is Intermediate equivalence and a university place.
The College assumes capability and fixes fit.
Most foundation programmes in Pakistan begin after Matric or O-Levels, and run for a year. That is no use to a student whose schooling stopped early, went sideways, or never fitted the system in the first place.
Greenwich Global College begins at Level 3, from thirteen and eight years of formal education — and climbs, level by level, to a qualification recognised by the Inter Board Coordination Commission as equivalent to Intermediate.
Five reasons this college exists.
- 01
Start earlier
Entry from Middle — two years before most foundation routes will look at you.
- 02
Climb a ladder
Three levels: pre-Matric, Matric equivalent, Intermediate equivalent.
- 03
Move faster
Roughly three years to university entry, against four or more.
- 04
Carry real currency
IBCC recognition and certification through the technical boards.
- 05
Use a university
The studios, labs and venues of eight schools — before you enrol in one.
Three levels, one ladder
Not a foundation year bolted onto a degree. A rebuilt pathway from eight years of schooling to university entry, taken one level at a time — with a place to stop and a place to continue at every stage.
Level 3 · The re-entry
6 months · from age 13 or 8 years of formal education
Six courses: business, marketing, accounting, mathematics, computing and academic English. Equivalent to pre-Matric, and the level that makes the rest possible.
Level 4 · The transit
10 months · two terms
Eight courses, widening into business management, entrepreneurship, financial method and e-commerce. Equivalent to Matric / O-Levels.
Level 5 · The gateway
10 months
Eight courses and a chosen pathway. Equivalent to Intermediate / A-Levels, certified through the technical board or IBCC — the gateway to the first year of a bachelor’s degree.
Diploma · Digital Design

Applied design skills with a portfolio, taken beside or after the foundation ladder.

Recognised by
The part nobody else can offer.
The rooms are open
The computing labs, the fashion studio, the broadcast floor, the trading venues, the library. Not a tour — timetabled use.
The people are the same
Foundation teaching draws on faculty who also teach the degrees. You are not being taught by a separate, lesser staff.
The step up is a corridor
Progression into a Greenwich degree is an internal route, not a fresh application to a stranger who has never met you.
A qualification, an internship and a university place you are prepared for.
A qualification the Inter Board Coordination Commission recognises as equivalent to Intermediate, an internship completed, and a university place you are prepared for — at Greenwich or anywhere else that accepts it.
Where the ladder leads
Course lists, entry tests, term fees, instalment plans and diploma details are published by the College.
The student who left school early.
The one who lost years and cannot face starting again beside children. The one who has to work. The one who is capable and simply never fitted a system built for one kind of learner.
The College assumes capability and fixes fit.
A college is only as good as where its students end up.
Not enrolment numbers — exit destinations, which is the only figure a parent choosing an alternative route actually needs.
GX at the College
College students sit inside the full GX programme, not a junior version of it — and build a GX Passport before they ever enrol in a degree.
The GX Passport is the documented record of participation, leadership, service and professional development, completed alongside the degree. Explore GX
