Default Good photography Unversities?
 
I want to study BA photography but don't know which universities would be suitable for this course. I have heard that Bournmouth Arts Institute, University College Falmouth and LCF are good; does anyone else know of any others? Thanks =].

LCF only do fashion photography and that's on a combined FDA with styling...

Camberwell, LCC, Westminster, Nottingham Trent

I know you mentioned it, but Falmouth is meant to be really good - I have a friend on one of the photography courses and he loves it.

It really depends on what kind of course you're looking at; as someone said LCF only does fashion photography, but then there's the other colleges that do a plain photography course (Camberwell and LCC). I got into Bournemouth Arts Institute and quite liked the prospect of their course but I heard it's quite competitive to get in. Some of the UCCA colleges are supposed to be quite good (Farnham I think? I know Maidstone has a joints degree) but it's really up to you what kind of place you're attracted to (I was put off by the whole nature of a small uni in a small place, but again that's totally personal). I finally set my mind on Brighton; I know I haven't started yet but I'd recommend you'd look into it. The course is 50-50 digital/analogical theory/practise and this is what really won me over. You should try and focus on these differences between courses/unis to find the place that's best for you.
Hope this was helpful, let me know if you need anything else, I'd love to help, I once was a Photography applicant

Thanks everyone, you've all been really helpful =].

I don't know why but I'm still leaning towards Falmouth...I think I just like Cornwall lol! It's difficult to know how to choose the right Uni really, I mean I've never done it before so I'm not really sure what to look for =D.
