GSA vs Loughborough vs Newcaslte for BA fine art, help!

Hi, guys!

I got unconditional offer from GSA (printmaking and painting) and Loughborouh (fine art). And I have the interview for newcastle.

I'm not in the UK and hardly can make a choice where to study.
Could you give me some advice for those uni's? Where is the best uni for studying fine art?
Thanks. :smile:

My advice would be to completely ignore the league tables for art. They're useless for art.
GSA definitely has the best reputation. Good luck with wherever you choose.

No, not for art. It is not at all an indicator.
