What students say about design

Leeds Arts Univerity is small in size, meaning there are few noteworthy Student Unions in comparison to UoL, but does feel welcoming and safe. The university's student support is freindly and helpful from what I experienced; LAU is a very inclusive organisation and does strive to support students with a variety of services available. The campus is a little dull looking, with few spaces looking vibrant in contrast to the many white/grey hallways. I was able to use the Film/Photography course's cameras as a Music student, however the university's facilities seem somewhat limited as a whole, with spaces and equipment scarce close to submission time.

What students say about design

The Arts building is by far the best thing about this university and my chosen course. The studios and performance spaces are top notch. You can even have access to so many instruments. So many nice facilities but access to them could be improved by extending the accessible hours. The building closes way too early (9 PM). Especially on the weekends (4 PM). Central location. The uni food is pretty mid so I choose Tesco meal deals more often unfortunately but if you’re not picky you can eat for 2 pounds at the beckett kitchen. Again wish they stayed open longer. Can’t say much about the union other than there aren’t many societies to choose from compared to the other unis.
