Study in the UK at University of Portsmouth
The University of Portsmouth is a public university on the south coast of England. Its origins trace back to 1870 with the Portsmouth and Gosport School of Science and Art; it became Portsmouth Polytechnic in 1969 and gained university status in 1992. The university teaches across five faculties.
Real Dreams Educational Consultancy works with students applying to UK universities from Nepal and beyond, and University of Portsmouth is one of the institutions available through our UK admissions service, including the March–June mid–intake.
University of Portsmouth for International Students
Students arrive at University of Portsmouth from across the world, and the international office handles what matters in your first month — arrival guidance, enrolment, opening a bank account, registering with a doctor and finding your feet. Academic English and study-skills sessions run through the year.
What differs course to course is the detail: contact hours, placement options, and whether a foundation or pre-sessional English route is available. We check that against your profile before you apply.
University of Portsmouth Entry Criteria
No single grade gets you in. It varies by subject, by level, and by how your qualification maps onto the UK system — Nepali +2, Indian Class 12, HND and bachelor’s qualifications are all read differently.
Our counsellors do that mapping, then say honestly whether to apply now, strengthen the application first, or look at a foundation or pre–masters route. Ask for an eligibility check.
Courses at University of Portsmouth
Business and law, creative and cultural industries, science and health, technology, and humanities and social sciences. A full list of the undergraduate and postgraduate courses we can place students on is available on our courses page, and our counsellors will shortlist the ones that match your background and career plans.
University of Portsmouth for Nepalese Students
University of Portsmouth is a regular destination for the Nepalese students we place each intake. Real Dreams has been a British Council–recognised education agent working with students from Nepal since 2003, and our counsellors in Kathmandu, Pokhara, Chitwan, Butwal, Bhairahawa, Birtamod and Kawasoti handle the whole process for you — choosing the right course, preparing your academic and financial documents, submitting the application, chasing the offer letter and CAS, and preparing you for the UK student visa interview.
Students of any nationality can apply through us, but Nepal is where most of our students come from, so we know which Nepali board and university qualifications University of Portsmouth accepts, what English language evidence works best, and how funds should be presented for a UKVI application.

University of Portsmouth Intake Dates
Three entry points are typically available: September, January, and the March–June mid–intake University of Portsmouth takes part in. Not every course runs in every intake, and some have limited places in the smaller ones.
Tell us the course you want and we will give you the next realistic start date, working back from CAS and visa timelines. More on mid–intakes.
University of Portsmouth Fees and Scholarships
International tuition is set per course and reviewed annually, and there may be scholarships, early-payment discounts or bursaries depending on your grades and intake.
We check what you qualify for at the point of application rather than promising something that may not apply by the time you arrive. Find out what you could pay.
