Hi @sanchez_c137

Thank you for considering us as an option for Postgraduate Study, and hope we may be able to help out with your decision making process.

The biggest question you should be asking yourself is "what is important about that university to me?"

In your initial thread you say you are looking for others advice on "ranking, reputation or course?" and while others advice may give you more information about which of those aspects were important to them, it may be best for you to consider what is the most important part about your degree to you- is it the university ranking? Is it what you'll learn on the course? Is it the location? Is it industry connections and contacts?

For our Illustration MA, the modules you will study are: Research Methods and Project Proposal, Creative Innovation and Entrepreneurship, Creative Studio, Professional Platforms Art and Communication and Illustration Major Project. All details here:
