2015 RCA vs UAL Chelsea for MA Fine art

Hello guys, :smile:

I'm a international applicant for MA.
Recently,I've got 2 admission letter from UAL Chelsea and RCA,which offered me MA Fine art and MA Painting degree places.

I really thrilled about the result,but it really confused me gradually...
I love the reputation of RCA, but it cost double time and over triple fees with Chelsea.

•

RCA – £55,800 (2 years) (Overseas Students)

•

UAL Chelsea – £18,000 (1 year) (Overseas Students)

It's a really huge difference between these school.
Fees are an issue for me,and I have to get a loan from a Bank while I study MA degree.
So,I need to consider the employment potential between after graduate from school.

Is it RCA a good choice for looking a job (i.g.design) after graduate even I don't have the "MA design" degree but only a MA Fine art degree?

Or,Chelsea is a good enough choice for a graduate?

Sorry about my poor English.I hope I can explain my issue in a decent language... :frown:

P.S. Here's my painting works website:

P.S.S. I haven't received the official pdf from RCA yet...

Hi Jamie!
What do you major in? painting too?
What point made you decide between these 2 school?
I do love the professor & the courses in both school, but I couldn't find a certainly factor to decide it...

I've received the official form,and they agree to extend the deposit deadline to end of May.
