Scholarships are available to overseas undergraduate and postgraduate students. Their first year of study at Falmouth University is in September 2022. The British Council and the UK government’s GREAT Britain Campaign are the main sponsors of the GREAT scholarships. They are also collaborating with higher education institutions in the United Kingdom. Academic departments will assign the awarded scholarships based on the applicant’s previous experience. However, they must have described this in their statement. Then, the academic heads of subjects will decide based on their professional judgment. But this is when the number of qualified candidates exceeds the awards available.

English Language Requirements
When it comes to applicants whose first language is not English, the University accepts a variety of English language examinations, which may be found on their International Entry Requirements page. When determining your English proficiency, Falmouth University may consider other factors, such as a reference from your employer if you work for an English-speaking company or a recommendation from an English teacher. Suppose your offer of a seat is conditional on your completing the institution’s English language proficiency standards. In that case, you must meet those requirements before your request becomes unconditional, and you can begin your studies at the University.
It also considers tests taken two years ago. It recognizes that the English test has been disrupted due to the Coronavirus Pandemic, which has become a significant difficulty for all students. If you took the test over two years ago, we may, if it is possible, examine proof of continuous use of English at work or elsewhere temporarily to assist those who have been affected.
