Clearing 2025

1. Do your research

Before you apply through Clearing make sure you've looked into key information such as how the course is taught and assessed, whether you get a dedicated studio space, how to apply for accommodation and what support services are available to you.

2. Apply yourself

Always complete your Clearing application yourself. Remember, the Falmouth University Applicant Services team are on hand to offer application advice and guidance at every stage.

3. Be prepared

If you're applying through Clearing by phone, you'll need to supply your UCAS number (if you have one) and your qualifications (including the name of the qualification, the subject, the grade and when you took them).

4. Ask the right questions

When you're talking to our Applicant Services team, be sure to get all your questions answered. For example you might want to ask what accommodation is available, whether you have a deadline, when the start of term is or whether there is any summer reading/work for your course.

You can also chat to our current students online and attend our events. These are great spaces to ask questions and get all the information you need about studying at Falmouth.

5. Virtual visits & events

You can experience Falmouth from afar by visiting our Virtual Experience page and booking your place at our online events.
