INTO London - London

If you just want to lose a year and come back without going anywhere, and lose your money - come here!

Attending this Centre has been a deeply disappointing experience. For the exorbitant fees they charge, the quality of education is shockingly low. The teaching staff, particularly SHAMBHU VAIDYA and ROBIN SMITH, have been nothing short of a disaster. They seem completely uninterested in providing any real help or support to the students. Their explanations are vague and inadequate, and they often resort to dismissive and even insulting behavior when students seek clarification.

It’s frustrating to see such a lack of professionalism in what is supposed to be an academic environment. Instead of encouraging students to engage with the material and grow, these teachers create a toxic atmosphere where students feel belittled. The level of disrespect is appalling, and it feels like they are more concerned with maintaining their authority than with actually teaching.

The entire program feels disorganized, with little attention to the needs or concerns of the students. I came here expecting a solid foundation to prepare me for university, but instead, I found myself feeling lost, unsupported, and regretting my decision to enroll. The focus seems to be on collecting tuition fees rather than providing any meaningful education.

Save yourself the time, money, and frustration — look elsewhere for a foundation program that values students and offers proper guidance. INTO London is simply not worth it.

Wonderful experience with INTO team. I have joined art and design foundation course at INTO London and it went smoothly without any troubles with a huge support from INTO team. Thank you!

Went here, and in all possible honesty, it's all a lie, the admins are god awfully useless, I wan unable to leave the country for a couple of weeks because they forgot to tell me my BRP arrived, only for it to immediately to be taken back because it had "the wrong amount of work hours" which it didn't. Teaching staff is overworked and for the most part subpar. That 90 something percent pass rate is nowhere near true as this year's is below 40%. As some of the other reports say the positive reviews are likely fake.
If you think this place is a functional and useful educational institution please rethink so. Exam re-sits cost exuberant amounts of money and are usually not worth it. Actual exams were worse though as they started 20 minutes late and ended 20 minutes early because of that. The printers are not free, and half of them do not work for students. Grades are nigh impossible to access and as such it is impossible to know your predicted grades so that you can properly apply via UCAS. The ONE upside is location, that's it, no more.

Very bad. Some teachers there are rude and you will get overworked. Save yourselves from this place. It's not worth paying for. It's a corrupt school that doesn't care about students. It's also expensive.

Graduated in 2022, it’s been an amazing experience for me. Good teachers and staff who helped a lot in settling in London and proceeding to my dream course at university ❤️

If you’re thinking of going here, don’t.
Believe most of the reviews that are written here. The good reviews are written by people who were asked to write good reviews by Into staff.
First - this place is a complete rip-off , it costs more than some masters programs at prestigious universities. I cannot think of a single reason that justifies the price range of the courses here. You can do better foundation programs that are affiliated with good universities. Not only will that give you a direct path to entering university, but it will also give you more options in terms of applying to better universities. As a lot of prestigious universities don’t accept Into’s foundation program, it does not hold as much weight as other foundation programs. Definitely double-check and see if the university you eventually want to go to accepts Into’s foundation course.
Secondly - the teaching here is subpar at best. If you are someone who struggles with speaking English, I can guarantee you will have little to no extra support given. You will be expected to keep up with students who speak English fluently. You will face difficulties in successfully completing this course if you are not fluent in English. This stands even though the IELTS score required to enter this course is low.
Third - Expect to learn GCSE level material throughout this course. It will not challenge you in any way or prepare you for university. Most university courses require exercising critical thinking skills - though Into has “critical thinking” as a core module, it hardly teaches you this necessary skill. Expect to learn how use MS Word and MS PowerPoint in the “critical thinking” classes.
Fourth - If you want to eventually study a subject like Law, do not enroll for the business, management, and law course.
You will have very minimal exposure to law as the program is largely business management based. Do not let the agents or staff convince you that this is a fitting program if you want study law - you will learn almost nothing about law in this course.
The only kind and dedicated staff here are Amy Pu and Amanda - but I doubt they are still working here. Jessica was the university counselor before - she was quite helpful, but she left very soon. I think that’s quite telling of how this center is run.
This place is predatory and exploitative towards International students who are new to the UK and want to get into university, but are unaware of the better options that are available. This place will take advantage of your ignorance by its greed and hefty fees. However, the extortionate fees do not reflect the opportunities that this course gives.
As mentioned, the foundation program holds little weight, and will narrow your chances of getting into a well-reputed university.
If you have been referred by an agent, remember the agent gets very well-compensated by Into when you enroll here. This place is a waste of time and money.

At INTO I found the environment and support I needed as an international student that is starting to live alone. It's a great place to meet other students that are facing the same pros and cons of being an overseas student and the teachers and staff are lovely people that are concerned with your student life and they try their best to encourage you to make the most of your experience there. Overall, it's a great first step into your progression to an UK university and had one of my best experiences living in the UK there.
