International Entry Requirements

International students chatting at a table

We welcome applications from students of all nationalities and from all over the world. We'll consider the equivalency of your specific qualifications against our entry requirements and help you through every stage of the application process. 

Our selection process and interviews

At Falmouth, we interview all applicants who demonstrate potential in their initial application. Interviews are two-way; they give you the opportunity to show your creative skills and interview us, and they help us further assess your potential in your chosen subject. You'll be invited to an online interview via the Applicant Portal, which you can use to request another date or time if you need to. If you are already in the UK, you can choose an in-person interview instead.

For any questions regarding entry requirements, please contact the international team

International Integrated Foundation Year entry requirements

Please be advised that, where possible, our academic teams will approach applications for courses with an Integrated Foundation Year with more flexibility around final academic grades, experience and demonstrated skills. These applications will be assessed on a case-by-case basis by our academic teams taking into account all elements of the application. However, please note that there is no flexibility on English Language Requirements.

The German government has recently updated its guidelines for its flagship combined loan and grant programme, BAföG. Previous rules meant that when the UK exited the EU eligible students from Germany could no longer receive this support for an entire course.

The revision means that students can apply for up to €5,600 towards tuition fees as well as up to just under €1,000 a month to cover living expenses for one-year Master’s programmes outside of the EU, i.e. including in the UK. 

Although the BAföG programme is means-tested, the thresholds for taking it abroad are higher than for studying in Germany, so it is always worth students checking whether they are eligible.
