Fine Art at Kingston

Hey
Anybody on the course?
I'm thinking about my route B options.
Somewhere in London preferably, so I'm thinking Goldsmiths, Kingston, London Met.... from what I've read on here Goldsmiths sounds the best of the 3. There's St Martins too, I need to check that one out a bit. Liking the sound of the Peel though.

I'd recommend Kingston, Goldsmiths and St Martins. London Met is one to avoid.

A friend of mine did his foundation there. He wasn't that keen on it. He's at LCC. It's part of UAL colleges so the reputation is good. Check it out for yourself if you're interested.

i'd go for goldsmiths, its such a great uni for creative arts, you can't go wrong. kingston won't giv you a uni of london degree, and like somebody else said, avoid london met.

Someone told me today that with Goldsmiths, they take 60% foreign students - because they pay more, and then take their own foundation students, and THEN there's places for others from the UK. Bit of a **** chance there.

Goldsmiths don't have foundation students because they don't offer that course. But they want their applicants to be doing or have done a foundation.

Also, there is pressure from the government about how many overseas students are taken vs home students. It's very unlikely that overseas students outweigh home students.
