Falmouth University

There are amazing facilities and the staff are always willing to help as long as you ask them. Opportunities are there but you have to go out of your way to take them, once you do you will have the best time.

Amazing community, Although Falmouth is slightly smaller compared to some big city competitors, it has allowed me to settle myself into a homely and amazing community. It’s such a unique university experience, there is not only enjoyable nightlife but also so much to do in the day! From beaches, to pubs, to fishing and surfing. Having previously left Manchester university, coming to falmouth was exactly what i needed. The smaller classes have allowed me to feel as though i am getting the support and attention i need from my lectures, to help me to achieve the best results possible. The campus itself is such a creative and beautiful environment which is especially important facing creative subjects.

I get flexible online classes. At the moment, we have two courses on the same day that are the same. Maybe peer discussions, a deeper dive into the topic or essay reviews for the second hour would be more useful.

I love Falmouth Uni!! It’s so beautiful here! I’m from the USA and I came all the way here just for Falmouth. It really lives up to the hype! I applied to 5 different schools in the UK and Falmouth was the only one that showed an interest in me as a person. Falmouth cares!

I love studying at Falmouth. It is a beautiful location set on the South Coast of Cornwall. It is a vibrant town, with lots of shops. restaurants, pubs, and clubs which means there is a good night life with different options for everyone. The campus is lovely, clean, modern and is 15 minutes from the sea! Making it ideal to pop down for a swim or go surfing when have some spare time. There are even some secret, walled gardens on campus full of tropical plants and flowers as well as an apple orchid, which I personally find really helpful as It gives me the chance to get some fresh air and have a breather, a five minute walk from my flat. Everyone that comes to study at Falmouth is like-minded and creative, which makes it a great place to study. I knew that I wanted to study at Falmouth since I was 13, having been on holiday to Cornwall every year for as long as I can remember. I knew that I loved the area and when I looked at all the courses and the online tour of the fashion & Textiles Institute on the website I knew it was the perfect place for me! Last year I was lucky enough to get in! My course is brand new this year so I wasn't too sure of what to expect but I am loving it! It is all coursework based, very practical and has given me amazing opportunities after just a term and a half such as potential internships, the chance to work abroad during cultural immersion trips funded by the university and also learning programmes such as InDesign and Photoshop which will be so valuable to learn for my future jobs in the industry! My course leader is amazing as well, so enthusiastic and fully committed. Whenever I feel anxious or stressed about my work or life in general I can come to him knowing I will be fully understood and supported. My first term was a bit tricky for me for multiple reasons, but I was able to book in an appointment with student support and talk through your problems with a professional which made me feel better. You can also do it anytime you want, you can drop-in and it's free. I was also receiving emails afterwards to check up on me. I really don't have anything bad to say about Falmouth, whether that be the location or the university. I have got a lovely group of friends now, which have also been developed through the wide range of groups and societies offered at the university. I am a part of the hip hop society which has been a great way to make friends with a common interest and also a chance to have fun. I am growing and thriving after being there just a few shorts months and I am sure I will continue to do so over the coming years. The only thing I think could be improved on is their food for people in Catered Halls. Their breakfast in great, but It would be good to have a few more options for people with food allergies like me. All in all, I love Falmouth so if you are looking for a creative, friendly, safe university right by the sea, I would definitely look into studying at Falmouth.
