Not a typical uni, smaller and more tight knit, good for music industry specialties.

Not a lot of funding, so quite limited compared to larger institutions, but more 1 on 1 time with lecturers etc

No

The facilities are second to none and it is a fantastic place to develop the skill set needed to work in this industry. The opportunities to perform in real world environments and the trips to working studios are a great insight into the industry. The student support services all left around Christmas. I was in a time of need and I was going to apply for extenuating circumstances but there was no one to discuss this with or ask for support. My tutors were there but it’s not their job to provide support services. I ended up just putting myself under immense stress and this lead to burnout.

I have enjoyed all of the modules and they have been well thought out with a clear progression through the modules with a lot of modules setting you up for the next ones. We don’t get a lot of time to have one to one sessions with the tutors. There is usually one per semester. Although I have asked for one before the proposed time for this meeting and Matt was happy to arrange it with me.
