Design studies, Kingston University

One particular tutor from first year graphics was very hostile towards international students.

There are great teacher

It ’s an unforgettable course, I really enjoy it.

Not sufficient support from my personal tutor

Ms Zelda Malan Needs sacking

It's a really good course, amazing tutors, great environment.

I did a BA honours in Graphic Design and I would not recommend this university at all. The tutors obviously have favourites and unless you are one of them or unless you are caucasian you are very likely to receive a low final grade, even if your work is exceptional. How they managed to get away with this is beyond me but lucky you find work based on your portfolio and not your grade for graphic design. The building and facilities are very outdated, and there is hardly ever any space in the studio to work, even if there is it is very crammed and noisy and awkward. There are hardly any lectured for this course, you go in maybe once a week to see your tutor and all they give you is advice. They do not teach you any new skills, they expect you to already know it all. So basically you are paying 9k a year for opinion on your work.

Fantastic course offering a completely fascinating way of studying Graphic Design. We really get our money's worth out of the tutors and teaching as they are always around and know us all individually.
