V. Testimonials:

	Ngoc Trieu BA (Hons) Design Management (previously BA (Hons) Design Management and Cultures), London College of Communication “”The best learning adventures can take place outside of the classroom, so my advice to new students is go out and explore. Get involved. Go to events, make friends, join societies. Make the most of your time as a student.”
	Courtney Burnan BA (Hons) Fashion Illustration, London College of Fashion “”I’ve been shown a huge range of new techniques, together with advice about how to enhance my existing skills, to refine my work and create professional illustrations. If you’re studying a creative subject, being in London is vital. There are so many spaces and experiences that you just don’t get anywhere else.”
	James Frost BA (Hons) Textile Design, Chelsea College of Arts “One of the best things about studying at UAL is the relationships you develop with the technicians. They’re so helpful, are full of great ideas and, since most of them have their own practice outside of UAL, they are so knowledgeable about everything related to your work.”
.	Rakshita Arvind BA (Hons) Creative Direction for Fashion, London College of Fashion “My course puts a lot of focus on industry together with personal creative growth. During my industry placement in second year, it became especially evident that the skills I’ve developed as a UAL student are so relevant in the real world of work.”
