Welcome
The University of South Wales is a popular choice with International students and we have been welcoming students from United States to our campuses for many years.
Students from the United States study a wide range of courses. A full list of subject areas can be found here.
A degree from the University of South Wales is the equal to a US degree in almost every subject and in most cases, it takes just 3 years to complete a bachelor’s and 1 year for Postgraduate MA or MSc.
A small number of courses, such as Master of Chiropractic may need additional training or recognition if you intend to practice outside the UK.
The University of South Wales offers generous scholarships to students from the United States who also enjoy the high standard but relatively low cost of living that South Wales offers. Students appreciate the friendly, safe and welcoming environment of the university and benefit from the campus locations in and around the city of Cardiff.
Students can enjoy everything the region has to offer – city life, sport and culture, great beaches and impressive historical landscapes. There are also excellent transport links between campuses and to all major cities in the UK.
We hope you find the information in this section of the website useful.
