Welcome to the Centre for Pre-University Studies!

We have come a long way and we take pride in the fact that we were the first School to be established in TAR College (now TAR UMT) in 1969 and that has served us well. From our humble beginnings as the pioneer School at TAR College, the Centre has become a destination of choice for students seeking quality and affordable pre-university programmes. 

The Centre offers TAR UMT's own home-grown Foundation in Science, Foundation in Arts, Foundation in Business, and Foundation in Computing. The Foundation programmes are MQA-accredited recognized pathways to TAR UMT's bachelor's degree programmes. The Foundation programme through its rigorous curriculum provides students with a solid foundation and requisite knowledge required for undergraduate studies.

Here at TAR UMT, while we insist on academic rigour, we also seek to enrich and challenge our students to develop their full potential. Given the right learning environment, a comprehensive range of physical support, dedicated and experienced teaching faculty, and generous pastoral care & support, our students are holistically groomed for challenges beyond Foundation Studies. 

We warmly invite you to join us to achieve excellence Beyond Education!
