Replies Summer2008 Posted at 1:00 am on May 16, 2008 It's really a sad situation. And there is no real easy answer. You have to find a few different income streams for yourself including online and offline job opportunities; of course scholarships if you qualify - but so many people don't. I really don't like the idea of student loans because I don't think it's fair that college kids have to have a huge loans looming over their head as soon as they graduate.

Beleive me. You would have been better off applying for an arts programme at a UoL uni like Goldsmiths. Sorry but thats the truth. Or if you were going to UAL you should have applied to St Martins or LCF. They are the only too really worth getting yourself destitute over.     ARE YOU SURE??? OMG how do i learn this stuff!! Whats wrong that makes the university not a top school:O     In your first year you are allowed to try out all of the different schools in university of Central St Martins, which i wanted to go to before, I have done some fashion design i jus tam not sure if it's what I want to do for the rest of my life.    Hmmmm not too sure about trying out all of the schools. Goldsmiths has a better reputation within the arts community than most of the UAL schools. Also something to think about is that UAL does not offer accomodation so it will be more expensive to find a flat or house or whatever in London whereas places in UoL offer halls especially to overseas students. actually university of arts london does offer housing especially to overseas students, yes it is 40 minutes outside of downtown by train, but o well. Please tell me where you are getting your information about Chelsea school of design and goldsmiths, i very much want to read it please, im a little sceptical but also i believe you a little.   But im sure UAL is a fine school, I don't care if it's not the top program in the country, it's more just about I want to live in the UK rather than america and this is a good (maybe not top) arts program in the country I go to University in London its just well known. Check out www.thestudentroom.com. its a great forum for University students has a forum for overseas students, and UAL, and Goldsmith and the other UoL colleges. dooger Posted at 12:56 pm on April 6, 2008 Quote: from theatreminelli at 5:48 am on April 6, 2008 Quote: from dooger at 9:56 pm on April 5, 2008 Quote: from theatreminelli at 5:55 am on April 5, 2008 UAL is not a top school.

It's not worth it to become destitute trying to go abroad unless you're going to a top school (which you're not). Not to mention that the flights home alone would break the bank. chelsea school of design university of arts london isnt a top school? Lol what makes you say this? Is it because it isnt oxford or cambridge and those are the only foreign schools you know?
