I had the best time of my life
September 14, 2022by: Bhavya Jhunjhunwala - IndiaUAL study abroad was one of my best decisions. It actually helped me learn soo much about my own self and it literally challenged me to perform and keep challenging my own ideas and work upto the best of my potential. I've had a great great experience in London and the professors at UAL were amazing...they were always ready to help and were too good at delivering content. To sum up, this course actually helped me get a direction towards my career goal. Looking forward to go ahead with a master's at UAL.

Best fashion school !
July 30, 2021by: Anaëlle Aguillon - FranceProgram: UAL Study Abroad Semester
It is still to this day my best international experience and academic experience in overall, the way of teaching (less conventional) is very modern and adapted to students. We feel like learning usefull things and live a total experience instead of just learning things by heart for final exam, that we will forget just after. The whole teachers team and academic team is here for you and are listening to how you feel and make you feel like you are considerated ! Even if some projet can ask a lot from oneself and cause lot of stress (the photoshoot we had to do with joseph for exemple) the learning outcome is uncountable !!!!
The experience of my life

This was one of the greatest opportunities and greatest times that I have had in my whole college experience. The professors were amazing and well immersed in the fashion industry. The people that I met there will be lifelong friends, and the experiences that I had changed me as well. If you can please study abroad.

Autumn 2019 study abroad
June 29, 2021by: Sophia Kim - United StatesI was able to be part of the Integrated Study Abroad program at Central Saint Martins. Luckily, previous students before me have been in this program before, so I was able to get a lot of advice and suggestions in regards to the school I attended and what I explore in the city. From my school in the US, I came to London with 3 of my friends from the same field of study, communication design. I am so grateful that I was able to go with these friends and that I was able to meet new people, too. I have created friendships at CSM that I am so happy to have and I believe that my experience there wouldn't have been the same without them. My time in London and at CSM has heavily shifted my perspective and the way I design. During my time at CSM, I realized that the way I worked was very restricted and had many rules. After my time in London, I knew that this was a great opportunity for me to change and become more open to the way I design. I miss London so much :(
Great experience!

In 2017 I was part of the study abroad program from my Master degree that came to London and studied at London College of Fashion. It was the adventure of a lifetime! I had so much fun while in London and learnt so much from the courses we attended. It was a great opportunity and it made me realise London was the right place to jumpstart my career in fashion. 4 years later, I am now working for a luxury fashion brand and have been since I finished my degree. Wouldn't change a thing about my time spent in LCF.
Unforgettable experience!

I completed the fashion business semester of Spring 2020! While it was shorter lived than I had hoped due to Covid, it was amazing. I enjoyed all of my classes and the teachers are extremely knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this program to anybody looking for a study abroad opportunity.
Enjoy a lot!

Best time
June 28, 2021by: Gessica Hage - BrazilMy time at UAL was great, it was when I realized I could do more than I thought I could. It opened my mind to new projects and possibilities. My course, interaction Design Arts had great teachers that were always willing to help and make us feel like home. The time I spent there made me fall in love with London and and gave me options of work I could do that never realized I could do before.
