I’ve had mixed experiences in this university, which is sometimes hard to distinguish from personal or university experience. I am grateful for the opportunity of being in london and meeting so many colourful people, however it felt like the university opportunity was somewhat lacking.
Good facilities, would be good if there was a gym. Having access to multiple campuses is really helpful. Teachers are lovely too.
Experience is very inconsistent, among courses, tutors, campuses, and course rooms. Kind of luck based whether or not you get a good semester
I have only been in uni for a couple of weeks, so I can't rate every category as I have yet to go experience them, but so far it's been ok.
Wish there was more teaching than workshops
Really nice place. Love the opportunities:))
really good library and supportive library staff
nothing to complain about but could be done bette in many cases
Still have to discover the university but for the moment I’m very happy
Cosy and clean spaces, especially love the cafeteria. New food choices every day and they're of quality standard. Multiple studios and workshops for students within the school. Great library as well!
The facilities are nice, and I tried many printing techniques that I had never experienced. However, lots of students book the slots for the special printing room but do not come. Or they book all slots first and just come to one of them. It is not fair.
good,I really enjoy it, I hope to join all interesting club in our school
The location of the campus is great for creatives and is well connected. The teaching staff and technical staff are good and very helpful.
Good uni for independent research, can feel disorganised at times.
Great uni with a great campuses.
It would be nice to have more socials
Amazing uni, it still is the place to be
I have just started my course and as an international student, I am quite satisfied with the club's, societies, student unions, etc so far.
being at the central saint martins campus , we are lucky compared to other cal campuses in that we have a well resourced library etc. the building is extremely cold in the winter and as I have a long-term health condition it can actually make it difficult to get in. also for some reason there is no map of the building which is easily accessible from the website. often
I love CSM, the teachers are amazing and it’s such a lovely atmosphere and vibe. Whenever I’m in I feel inspired !
London College of Communication (LCC) is part of UAL in Elephant & Castle. It is easy to get to, on many bus routes, the Northern and Bakerloo lines, and Thameslink. The campus is built in a strong 1960s brutalist style that has been tastefully modernised in the majority, a variety of courses are on offer, though Graphic & Media Design (GMD) is by far the biggest of them. Lecturers are friendly and genuine, and communication is good with frequent email updates. As with any arts university, the student body is varied and colourful, you'll find groups of everybody here and have no problem making friends. The pace of the GMD course can be a little intimidating, but as they focus more on the process rather than the final outcome it's something that you can get comfortable with in time and with dedication. The Tower Block has open spaces to study and relax, the GMD space takes up the entirety of the 6th floor which offers good views of the surrounding area and a warm, relaxed environment.
UAL is amazing the staff are amazingly helpfull the building is beautiful and the ability to help individuals create meaning through art is beautiful. There are tons and tons of societies to join wether you want to join a religious society or a film society.
UAL provides a great environment for creatives and offers wonderful events throughout the year - access to all campuses is a huge bonus
Totally racist school, most LCC workshop teachers and school tutors treat white students and other races with different attitudes. Pretending to be a diverse school when in reality most of the workshops and tutors are white, are white people the only ones with better taste in art? I'm tired of hearing white tutors talk about BLAM in the class so often, it's too disgusting. It is also not disability-friendly; the staff will try to drag your request along as slowly as they can since they only have to deal with it within 3 months according to the rules. There are a lot of students with disabilities whose issues are delayed over and over again. The school has a fund for the disabled, but it is unlikely you can successfully apply for it. If you want a pure, happy, and diverse art life, do not come; this school can only give you depression. UAL, PLEASE STOP USING MINORITY GROUPS AS YOUR DECORATIONS IF YOU DON'T EVEN CARE ABOUT PRETENDING!
I wasn’t studying here I was interning here and i loved it!!!!! It was an awesome experience.
A great campus in a great location teaching in an engaging way
No comment. The only i can share is RUN!
Good facilities and technicians who go out of their way to help you
You’re paying for the name and the confidence to find your own work and skills rather than being taught. Work load is insane
Had the most amazing start to my MA at LCC. Amazing facilities and the teaching has been outstanding. Can't wait to continue with my course.
I’m having a great time at university and I hope my second year is even better
Great for art students. Good exposure
ual is my dream school. I really like it here. It is very free here, and the teachers and classmates are very nice. The school also provides us with a lot of learning resources.
Good learning rhythm, good learning environment, professional courses with appropriate difficulty
Really joy that I have such great time with my tutor and classmate, to be honest I'm not a social guy who coming abroad with my own friends but it just can quickly get me into the school atmosphere.
The campus and facilities of this university are brilliant and fascinating.I really hope that I can learn more things during the period of time in the school.
It's not a very good place to go to uni to be honest
Currently lcf is spread across London so next year community will be much easier
Wide diversity of people and some tutors are very nice
UAL is a good university. I have enjoyed my time here so far. I wish that there was more time to balance my working life outside of uni as it is extremely difficult to have uji 4-5 days a week, go to work, do my uni work, etc
Love the teachers and the work environments provided as well as the atmosphere
Experience overall good, loads could be improved but I guess that’s what the new building is for but I would have graduated by 5en
Great uni, I’ve learned a lot.
i’m at wimbledon and it’s calm
The school provides a lot of facilities and equipment for students to use, which I really like. There are also many free workshops for students to develop their skills. The teachers and staff are very friendly and willing to help you with your problems.
Good university, good staff and good facilities
i like my couse but my classmates are not inspired enough, also wimbledon is really far:(
i love UAL sooooooooooooooooooooo much
Great uni for studying anything in the arts. Facilities are amazing and each have specialised staff you can ask guidance for. Only thing I have to complain about is the lack of diversity in the teaching body and that discussions outside the 'norm' I.e. White perspectives are difficult for the staff to wrap their heads around. Would like to connect with my tutors but often times they only really connect with the other white students.
The great citadel of learning!
Central St Martins is the perfect and Brilliant Uni
Lots of social opportunities offered to students
A good place to learn art courses. mass freedom in the courses.
nice place perfect great facilities
I'm havig my second year as BA student, overall experience has been good.
Camberwell is so different from other campuses that students pay the same tuition fees as other campuses.
LCF campuses are not good enough. Teachers are good but there is no support for mental health issues.
Good learning experience overall. UAL has its problems but I am quite happy at Camberwell college.
Career guidance is not enough.It may be that the salary is not enough to cause many tutors to leave their jobs. My friend of another major can't find a qualified professional tutor.
One of the best art universities in the world
Campus is nice! People are nice!
Good place to studt fine art. Very good facilities and tutors and also students.
good, UAL is trying to give students best service, tutors are friendly, environment is nice, facility is good... etc
Nice facility, tutors and courses
Good uni, bit unorganised and confusing at times.
Quite good so far~~~~~ I quite enjoy here, it’s close to my uni
Good lectures, and content however could have more contact hours and better extracurricular and social opportunities.
Carefully check the course you're applying to. Some of the courses just exist with no clue of what they're going to teach you, but want you to pay lots of money for that. Facilities are good though. Nice place to try printing techniques, nice library and work spaces.
Great campus some tutors are nice
It's fantastic to study at UAL as you can make lots of friends here. The tutors are very nice to students and you can learn many new ideas from them. I also love to join the on-campus and off-campus workshop activities.
Very nice university. Tutors are very helpful
Workshop sometimes not enough, everything else went ok
In Archway campus for foundation, cold and old building facilities are ok but not great teachers are amazing people are cool but not much to do outside of workshops, no clubs/societies everything is in kings cross campus
Love the uni. But 9 hours of face to face teaching a week is absolutely unacceptable and robbery to paying students. Facilities amazing. Teaching structures and staff ladder - much to be desired
UAL handled as best as possible the pandemic situation. The online education was well planned and I managed to learn a lot even if I was situated in another country. It offers all kinds of workshops and technicians that enabled me explore my course and my preferences and to expand my knowledge, my thinking, my working process. One can find anything as long as they search, UAL offers it all. The international experience is totally amazing, and allows us to create bonds between many cultures, nationalities and languages.
I have had a fantastic first year at Wimbledon College. The facilities and teaching have been great and the teacher have gone above and beyond to support us through the pandemic. Bring on year 2!
Hope we can get back to campus and meet classmates soon. It's sad that we paid £22920 for only online classes.
Good university, not the best with administration
The university has consistently bent over backwards to treat me like I don’t exist.
very good nice brilliant beneficial
I am a first year student at UAL London college of fashion I’m studying fashion management. My overall experience has been really great the staff is super supportive and helpful. Also I haven’t been able to attend face to face classes due to pandemic there online classes are very well organised and we’ll scheduled.
Ual is a great school that will help you foster your creativity and passion for whatever discipline you wish to go into.
Since we're in a pandemic, I didn't get the chance to get to know the Uni that much and I have only gone to uni a few times. Hopefully next year I can have a stronger opinion
I think the school is great! However, due to the epidemic caused a lot of inconvenience, many school facilities were not available.
London metropolitan Been living here for two years. Great value for money. Very spacious rooms. Polite staff. Great location as well. Many grocery stores around, three parks, three public transport stations. Totally worth it.

The campus location is great and has professional facilities.
Great university with great staff to help you further and develop your understanding of your chosen course.
Lovely place, the teacher here are all patient and nice
Very good, the online class experience is very good, the teachers are very friendly, and reply emails quickly
Can't tell much because I haven't had many possibilities to go to college so far. The teachers are super good, the programme is amazing and we have a lot of equipment we can book for projects, which is very useful and money saver
I am very happy to have the opportunity to study in UAL. The teachers and students are very friendly.
It's a really great place to live in! Great facilities and welcoming staff. And is very close to the Stockwell station.
Many creative options and freedom
I have not entered the campus due to the epidemic。
LOVE IT HERE! i just wish covid hadn't disrupted my studies
Good Uni, friendly environment.
LAMDA is a world-class drama training institution.
No careers help talking from a MA's. No help from the tutors. Head tutor, and other tutors, never answered to any emails after the exhibition. Never.
I studied at Chelsea College of Arts, the location is beautiful as well as the campus, the faculty is a pro and very knowledgable.
