    Hi we are a student couple coming to Winchester. We are currently looking for a place to rent and we are quite unlucky finding it. If anyone knows about a place in Winchester, lease let me know. Thanks.

    Is WSA good for Fashion Marketing? Do they have some strong links with the industry? (:

    Hi Tom!

    I hope you are well.

    The BA (Hons) Fashion Marketing programme has an excellent reputation, both academically and in industry, and attracts about 4 students for every available place.

    The Programme Leader is Amanda Bragg-Mollison and her email address is A.Bragg-Mollison@soton.ac.uk If you email her, she will be very happy to tell you about links with industry.

    Best,

    Sarah

    Hi Sarah!

    Thank you for your prompt answer!!! I have an important question for me, can I live in Southampton while doing a degree at WSA?

    I am already speaking with the school because I am a very very very late applicants, I'll ask them about links with industry.

    What about you? Are you a student? Do you work there?

    Regards,

    Thomas

    Hi, I'm also starting on the Fashion and Textile design course in September. It's nice to talk to someone else who's going! And I know how you feel, it's very exciting but nervous at the same time!

    I don't know if I'm right, but i think you hear back from accommodation once the university has received proof you met your conditional grades.. if you had a conditional offer...

    If you are going to WSa next year please join this group on facebook

    https://www.facebook.com/groups/427425250623922/

    And if you don't have your grades yet you can't hear back from them, otherwise you should get your offer before the end of july!

    Currently debating whether or not to apply to study BA Fashion Marketing at WSA. Is anyone on TSR already on this course who would care to share their experiences, thoughts etc?
