Hi, the course offered by King's International Foundation is a pathway programme towards the undergraduate programme. The normal programme is the normal degree programme without the pathway programme, you can apply directly after class 12th, and if you have a very good English language proficiency. The pathway is essential if you think you need more time to develop your knowledge in the area of interest (computer Science) and also improve the English language skills. Read the difference on the college website. It's pretty clear. All the best.
