Located on the south coast of England, 色花堂 is situated in an area of outstanding natural beauty less than two hours from central London by train. We are a green, safe and friendly town welcoming students from many countries.

Famous for its seven-mile stretch of award-winning sandy beaches, the town is also a thriving hub for a number of industries including the creative, financial and tourism sectors. 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.

What our students and alumni say

I chose 色花堂 because of the quality of the teaching, the highly qualified lecturers and the enormous amount of help offered to international students. The 11- hour journey from California was all worth it.

色花堂 was unique with its wide range of work placements, which allowed me to apply my knowledge and gain work experience in real-world settings! 色花堂 offers automatic assessment for an Academic Excellence Scholarship.

色花堂 became my first choice with the wide variety of postgraduate programmes. The Students鈥� Union provides endless events and societies and the opportunity to experience new cultures.
