UAL OR RUSSEL group for fashion marketing

Hey, I have been really overwhelmed with the decision to choose between UAL and uni of Manchester for fashion marketing 2024! I cannot afford London but do not want to live at home/too far away(Essex) but Manchester is such a good uni and I gave got a contextual from it! IDK WHAT TO DO PLEASE HELP SOMEONE as I have heard lots of bad things about UAL

which course do you prefer?

which course do you prefer?

Both are okay but Manchester has much more benefits like learning a diff language, study abroad and have also applied for a scholarship

Manchester is a Bsc/Msc course and would be more technical and UAL being a BA/MA would be more creative.
Both would open different kinds of opportunities. Manchester would give you a better university experience with diverse course students together, electives and more opportunities for sports and all.
UAL is of course higher ranked in arts, and better connected for proper fashion exposure. It will allow to collaborate with London fashion week, and other arts and fashion focused opportunities.
When you say you like fashion marketing - Do you like sales, buying, merchandising, business management or branding, communications, campaigns, advertising etc.?
It would all come down to what you want your future as. look up student work and alumni from both the courses on Linkedin and where they are at at the moment.

Hi there im in the same situation right now and was wondering how you’re getting on? Ive got an offer from Manchester for fashion marketing

Hey! I chose Manchester. I love the city and fashion marketing a a whole. It’s genuinely the best decision I would’ve made, the course is creative at times (I just had a sewing lab) and yet uses analytics and contains management concepts. Lots of people here have come from SREM backgrounds like biology, economics, maths etc. I even got awarded a scholarship because of my a levels. It’s a great city, good nightlife, beautiful campus although beware that accommodation isn’t always on campus, many events happening around, great career insight opportunities, great lecturers who actually care about your learning. I love it! Also in year one you learn management as well as buying and marketing so you can make a more informed decision on what to pick in year 2! Good luck on your a levels xx

Hi me too, have you made a decision yet?

Thank you!! Really needed a bit of reassurance!! Can I ask what halls you’re in as I’m trying to figure out which is worst pick as they all seem pretty rough

Hi I chose Manchester! Love the course and the city and I think it offers a different experience as it’s a Bsc so that mainly swayed my decision!
