2014 Cornwall/Penryn Campus entry - especially anyone doing Zoology or related :)

I studied there in 2014 and ended up dropping out by xmas. It's a nice place to study and don't let anyone tell you it's quiet and Cornish because it may be Cornish but still has plenty of parties and night life just in a more densely populated space - you still get plenty of the usually drunken idiots. With regards to the course, obviously it may be different now, but they massively oversubscribed. The year as a whole couldn't fit in one theatre. Some lecturers were shocking but there were some good ones too. My tutor didn't have a clue about being a tutor when it came to advice - I actually got more help from the Falmouth Union folks when dropping out. If you're sure that you want to learn a broad array of all things living then it may be perfect for you. I just didn't really relish in collecting earthworms for three hours. I think the best way to look at it is that if you're keen on saving the planet, being green, want to volunteer, travel, be part of nature unions and have a passion for all things living then it may be ideal. Not to mention having a beach nearby is great if you're into water sports and surfing. I would definitely recommend visiting and talking to current students as thing change evey year. Obviously this is just my experience but good luck with it all. If you have any other more specific questions will gladly answer if I'm able.
