Fashion HND/HNC degrees

Facilities (5) - I truly believe that my degree is perfectly accommodated for just by looking at the facilities on offer. Not only that, but the actual hive bar is brilliant and there is lots of space for everyone. Location (3) - Although the building itself looks fabulous where it is, to get there you have to cross a very busy main road that sometimes can be dangerous and with it being outside of the AO arena, it makes it hard being there when a concert or show is on. With that being said however, the fact it is barely a 10 minute walk from Victoria station makes it very easy for me as a commuter. Student Support (4) - I believe that UCEN goes above and beyond when trying to support students, particularly with their schemes on offer to help those less financially stable. The only thing I’d say is maybe make it a bit more obvious where to access these support by putting posters up around the campus. Campus Look and Feel (5) - It is clear that there has been a lot of work gone into the campus itself which makes it a really beautiful and welcoming place to be. The campus actually featured on the latest season of Waterloo Road so I am pretty sure that this only goes to show how incredible it is. Student Life (4) - As far as I am aware, as a commuter student, the campus is brilliant for somebody like me as I can easily get there everyday providing the trains are running, but I do feel that with the location of the campus, students find it relatively difficult to find accommodation on offer around it, and therefore, this can make it difficult for students to really get to grips with student life when not being close to the campus or city centre. Students Union (5) - The students union is always thriving, there is always something going on that they have put together in the hive, and it is really a pleasure to get involved in these things and take a break from the degree for a moment. Whether that be painting or putting on a movie night, they really do go above and beyond. They also promote our concerts and events which is lovely to see.

I absolutely love this college. The staff are so lovely and friendly, and are always willing to support and help students. The lecturers and staff of the photography department are fantastic. The one-to-one tutorials with lecturers are incredibly helpful for students, providing feedback and support on what works well in their work and what they could improve. I started the photography course with no knowledge of photography. As a result of the three years on the course, I have gained so much knowledge on photography that I could not have imagined having before starting the course. I have gained so much confidence as a result of being on the course due to the incredible support from the staff on the course. The staff are so encouraging when it comes to students and are passionate about their work. The staff has encouraged me to expand my creativity and, as a result, I have seen a drastic change between my work before the course and my work as a result of the course. It has been an absolute privilege studying at Carmarthen School of Art, and I will greatly missing being there. I would definitely recommend studying here to anyone passionate about art, especially photography.
