The area isn’t very well connected but has a nice community feel. Great student union with lots of activities at the start of term to get to know people. Would love more casual studying spaces and activities throughout the rest of the year. Felt very supported by the Immigration Department

Great lecturers who are very accessible and accommodating, interesting study material but wish we had a wider variety of course content

Great overall but a bit too expensive for size of personal space

Although the student union is small (as is the uni) there are events held regularly, but I would argue are not inclusive enough to all interests. Also, toilet facilities need improving and regular cleaning. In terms of drama, theatre, art and music facilities, Goldsmiths is great, but access to these if you are not a student in those subjects is difficult. Lastly, management at Goldsmiths is lacking, this is an issue Goldsmiths is ignoring to change.

I was informed this course would help you get internships, placements, jobs etc. However you have the option of organising a placement yourself in third year. This does not seem outstanding to me.

London is a great city to live in as a student, especially in the arts but also across many sectors. As an arts student, opportunities are endless, but I know fine arts students struggle finding employment straight out of university.

The prices for halls have increased since I went in first year. It is more affordable to rent a shared house in London than halls of residence, but I would say it's worth it in first year to create your friendship groups outside of your course. I was lucky in Surrey Old house to not have rats. I know other houses in surrey house did have a rat problem. This seems to be a reaccuring London halls issue that needs to be attended to.
