Recognizing universities
INTO Qualifications and the International Foundation award are recognized by a growing network of high ranking and popular universities.
When promoting progression options, it is essential that university partners are represented accurately and consistently. This includes the correct use of university logos.

A pre-approved logo graphic – showing a selection of recognizing universities – is available for use and can be downloaded via this link. This graphic must not be edited, cropped or altered in any way.
Pre-approved logo graphic guidelines:
- Only use the full pre-approved logo graphic.
- Don’t remove, reposition or highlight individual university logos.
- Don’t use university logos in isolation or outside the provided graphic.
- Avoid promoting only a selection of universities.

Please ensure:
- all recognizing universities are listed by their correct, full name
