BA (Hons) Fashion Media and Marketing with Foundation Year

Arts University Plymouth

Commercial fashion storytelling — media and marketing rather than cutting patterns alone — defines Arts University Plymouth’s BA (Hons) Fashion Media and Marketing with Foundation Year. You can base yourself at Canary Wharf in London or at the Manchester centre on Chorlton Street, matching the city to your life. The foundation year prepares creative applicants for the honours stages on a weekday full-time pattern, with September 2026 currently listed. AF Education will not invent brand partnerships or portfolio rules; advisers simply help England-resident home students with Student Finance England and applications free of charge. Compare this media-and-marketing title with pure fashion design siblings when you shortlist.

Who this course is for

This suits creative applicants who prefer fashion media, marketing and commercial communication over studio-only design, and who need a foundation year before Level 4. It is useful if you are deciding between London Canary Wharf and Manchester study locations.

Entry routes for mature students

The foundation year supports applicants who need preparatory undergraduate study. Portfolio or evidence rules vary — AF Education will help you confirm what Arts University Plymouth requires for your intake.

Funding with Student Finance England

AF Education is a free service for England-resident UK home students — not international applicants. For eligible courses, a Tuition Fee Loan is paid directly to the university and a Maintenance Loan is paid to you for living costs. Eligibility depends on residency and previous study; use our free eligibility checker before you apply.

Check your Student Finance eligibility — free, takes about 2 minutes.

How often you study

Typical full-time study with these providers is usually 1 to 2 campus days a week, around 2 to 4 hours per day, so many students work alongside their course. Timetables vary by course and campus — always confirm your timetable before you enrol. Weekday full-time study is listed; confirm which campus (Canary Wharf or Manchester) and timetable apply to you.

Career and progression

A fashion media and marketing award points toward communications, content, brand support or commercial fashion roles rather than solely design-studio jobs. Outcomes depend on portfolio and experience. AF Education does not guarantee employment.

Course overview from Arts University Plymouth

About BA (Hons) Fashion Media and Marketing with Foundation Year

Arts University Plymouth lists BA (Hons) Fashion Media and Marketing with Foundation Year as an full-time weekday bachelor's. Campuses are Canary Wharf in London (Harbour Exchange Square, 3rd Floor, E14 9GE) and Manchester (Arthur House, Chorlton Street, M1 3FH).

Fashion media and marketing in the award title points to a communications and commercial fashion pathway rather than pure garment design. The foundation year marks preparatory undergraduate study before the honours stages.

Having both Canary Wharf and Manchester sites on one record is useful if you are deciding between those cities for creative fashion study. Compare this media-and-marketing title with the Fashion Design foundation sibling when you shortlist. An adviser can help with applications and Student Finance England questions where they may apply.

Dual Fashion Design/Marketing categorisation means this page can appear in more than one subject filter on our site. Use the exact award title when speaking to advisers so nobody confuses it with Graphic Design or Fashion Design-only pathways at the same partner.
