Game for foundation degree students (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

baseball

'game' is the definition.
(baseball is a kind of game)

'foundation degree students' is the wordplay.
'foundation' becomes 'base' ('base' can be a synonym of 'foundation'**).
'degree' becomes 'ba' (Bachelor of Arts).
'students' becomes 'll'.
'base'+'ba'+'ll'='BASEBALL'

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for baseball that I've seen before include "Slab able to be used in the game?" , "SPORT/GAME" , "Game played in a strangely able labs" , "some Americans enjoy it" , "US game" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
