Our Courses
When you study one of our accelerated, two-year undergraduate courses, you'll save time and money compared to a traditional degree. We teach over three semesters a year instead of two, meaning you'll graduate a year earlier than your peers whilst studying a full degree programme. Or choose one of our fully-funded Level 4 diplomas and be ready for an entry-level role in fashion in just one year.
All of our courses have unparalleled industry enrichment included, ranging from masterclasses to mentoring and work placements, so you'll have the opportunity to build industry contacts ahead of employment.
If you're under 18 and haven't studied a Level 3 course such as A-Levels or a diploma, you're eligible for our College Courses. These are perfect preparation for further study on a Level 4 or Undergraduate course.

I chose to study Fashion Retail (with Marketing) as I was unsure of which area of industry I wanted to work in. I enjoyed it so much that I'm continuing my studies at the Fashion Retail Academy with a degree. If you're unsure of what career path to take, I thoroughly recommend this course!

My course helped me decide the career path I wanted to take. They send out regular emails with new job and internship opportunities, and I landed a great internship which boosted my CV. I am now talking to a digital marketing company about a potential job offer! It has been an incredible experience and I couldn’t recommend the Fashion Retail Academy enough.
