Hear from Martin, who had his heart set on a Biomedical Engineering degree at King’s. Despite being thousands of miles from his Venezuelan home he says the foundation ‘helped me a lot’, allowed him to make ‘friends from all over the world’ and made him ‘feel like [he is] at home’. He made the grade and was able to follow his heart to Biomedical Engineering (BEng) with us.
Sadaf wanted to study international relations at a prestigious global institution.

Initially, viewing the King’s Foundation as a means to an end, Sadaf thought she would study her degree somewhere else but found that ‘this is the place I want to be’. She went on to complete an International Relations (BA) at King’s.
