International College Portsmouth (ICP) is a private educational institution. It operates as an associate college of the University of Portsmouth, offering pathway programs to prepare students for undergraduate and postgraduate degrees. While the University of Portsmouth itself is a public university, ICP functions independently as a private entity, specializing in international student education.
ICP provides foundation, pre-master’s, and English language courses, catering primarily to overseas students. Its partnership with the University of Portsmouth allows seamless progression to degree programs, but it remains privately owned and managed, distinct from public higher education institutions funded by the government.
