Location
Bournemouth is an ideal place for international students, being a thriving hub for many industries, including the creative, financial and tourism sectors. It has something for everyone – incredible beaches, a lively town, a state-of-the-art leisure complex and stunning green spaces. The vibe is certainly cosmopolitan and friendly.
But it’s not just about the fantastic beaches (although we must admit they are pretty special); the New Forest National Park is on our doorstep, and the Jurassic Coast (which is a World Heritage site) is just a short drive away.
Plus, we are less than two hours from London (with direct trains to Waterloo) and have an international airport.
It’s not hard to see why many of our students settle in Bournemouth after graduating, often launching their own enterprises.
