Fine Art: Painting, BA Hons FullTime

Would tell that course could be more stractured and organised with more regular assignment dates or some approximate dates with what we need to do for the submission, although it helps you to manage your own time. Lectures could be improved with giving a bit more information about theory and art history. However, staff is really friendly, open and helpful, as well, as college facilities are great read more

Interior and Spatial Design, BA Hons FullTime

The BA Interior and Spatial Design course at Camberwell is incredibly creative and concept-driven — it really pushes you to think beyond traditional design and explore spatial experiences in innovative ways. The tutors are passionate and the studio environment is collaborative and inspiring. However, the career guidance and job prospect support could be stronger, especially for students looking to transition smoothly into the professional world. Overall, it’s a brilliant course for developing your artistic voice and creative confidence. read more

The course content is very relevant to the field. There are talks from designers occasionally. There are good for resources provided by tutors to learn more about branding outside of class. We also have our own course library and some tools to borrow. One thing I wish people in my class could show more enthusiasm in the subject because that could make class environment more engaging. But everyone is very kind. read more

They focus on design, thinking, innovation, critical thinking, strategy building.

Fine Art: Photography, BA Hons FullTime

My course has been kind of life changing. I had a very narrow view of Photography until I came to Camberwell. From the first moment, you have your own studio space (not common in Photography courses), access to tutors at any time (not common in big Fine Art courses) and access to all the facilities in university. It's all about finding how can you push your ideas beyond a specific medium. I currently consider my work to be very adventurous and experimental mostly because of my experience at BA Fine Art Photography at Camberwell, UAL. read more

I believe the course was too expensive since we had. most of our year online. Nevertheless, our tutors were supporting us greatly, making sure we understand everything that is being transmitted. To my surprise, they were even making sure that our mental health is good, by offering 1-to-1 tutorials. The course itself is so rich and interesting, an online platform cannot deliver everything, it's impossible. The topics and knowledge I gained, made me question myself, influenced me and made me develop a new way of thinking. When it comes to Job prospects, personally, I never struggled with finding one. read more

BA Illustration at UAL’s Camberwell campus has been a huge disappointment. We pay the same fee as other uni students, yet we literally do not have classes, and there have been multiple weeks (not breaks) where we didn’t have any lectures or things to do, thus they are essentially NOT TEACHING us anything! I haven’t acquired any new knowledge from attending this course. The whole course feels like a huge scam, and the atmosphere is extremely unprofessional and chaotic. We do not have access to any of the printing or other facilities on our own and what they call our ‘studio’ is so small and uncomfortable and with no storage space (!) that one cannot work there. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS COURSE OR UAL IN GENERAL TO ANYONE. read more

Illustration, BA Hons FullTime

An art course with absolutely no technical classes. There was no drawing classes before this year when I pushed for one of them to be created. You only go to class to present your project and get mediocre feedback on it because this course is so general that you could be presenting a project about a children’s book to people who want to work in something very different. For such a reputed course, it is dreadfully bad, clearly just made to cram as many students in it as possible and offering very little skill building. They have an approach that mixes fine art with graphic design, they expect all of their students to want to change the world with design campaigns. There is no way you can learn about techniques on this course. Sadly it looks like this is becoming the norm for art courses. read more

Fashion Design Technology: Menswear, BA Hons FullTime

menswear at lcf is a joke to begin with in the first year. Since September we have barley done anything. You would think that on a design class you would get taught about design. Instead they expect you to come in for a 9:30 till 17:30 session where you are basically left on your own until a tutor comes round and basically doesn't tell you that much and the talk lasts 20 mins at the most. If you are going on this design course and expect to get taught design you are wrong. Instead they are pushing for a artistic approach which is just boring and doesn't have that much to do with design. read more

Graphic Design Communication, BA Hons FullTime

First year tutor unprofessional, had clear favourites and didn't bother with the rest of us even slightly. Very little (/no) extra support given to those who need it. Unfriendly class structure. Uninteresting/uninspiring projects all year. read more

Graphic Design Communication, BA Hons FullTime

Honestly.. I'm really disappointed with this course :(. Im in my first year and I feel like this whole thing has been a massive waste of time and money. A lot of my course mates seem to love it, don't get me wrong, but I definitely think it works a lot better if you ALREADY have a great understanding of everything before you arrive. I was under the impression that we'd get taught all the technical skills and fine-tuning here, but unfortunately not. I feel completely out of my depth with very very little help from anyone. I emailed the course tutor a bunch of times and rarely got any response at all. The subject matter is quite hard to comprehend unless you already have a load of experience in the field. The projects also havent been half as inspiring as the ones Ive heard of at other unis. Also it kind of feels like a constant competition. Chelsea itself is truly lovely and everything else about it is wonderful, but I feel like the first year of this course has been truly terrible. read more

Would tell that course could be more stractured and organised with more regular assignment dates or some approximate dates with what we need to do for the submission, although it helps you to manage your own time. Lectures could be improved with giving a bit more information about theory and art history. However, staff is really friendly, open and helpful, as well, as college facilities are great read more
