What students say about design

Best experience: a lot of student space when studying out of hours Worst experience: Student food is very expensive, it is well known that most students can not afford luxury goods, as most are not dependent on their parents but are not able to have a full time job, yet to have a nutritious meal you need to spend like you have money, majority does not have the privilege to enjoy two nutritious meals a day and the access we have to food in the university does not help

What students say about design

The atmosphere at this university is great! The union is always lively, with pool and darts, hot food, music and lots of room for socialising. Even when in class it feels great, the lectures are always informative and the seminars mean that the tutors can really help and talk to the students. I like the fact that each semester the students can choose their own seminar times, creating a timetable that suits their schedule. The location of this university is one of my favourite things, such a close walk to the main shopping street and some great places for food. Also close to to GCU which is great as the students can mix and hang out together. Overall this university is a great place to apply and i am very happy with the decision i made!

What students say about design

The staff are great! They are always there for support and I never feel like I do not have someone to approach when struggling. Having a personal tutor is so beneficial as well, as you always have them to talk to whether it be about your studies, personal matters or career paths! I also love that it is all one campus so no need to run between building to building making it to classes as they all link in some way. The student wellbeing service is also a great support system in place, the counselling service is extremely helpful and an amazing thing to have built into the university.

This really is a great place to be a part of. I absolutely love the Glasgow school of Art. I have already recommended to friends & my cousin who has always wanted a place here - she is an incredible designer.
