Kingston art foundation

I got an offer for art foundation at Kingston which I’d love to accept but was wondering what the hours were like as I live pretty far from the university so I’m a little worried about the days being too long

Hi there,

Congratulations on your offer!

Kingston School of Art is truly amazing, with great facilities and courses, and has been recognised as one of the best creative schools in the UK for a long time. I've heard from students here that they've had the best experience at KSA.

I'm not sure about the timetable for the Art foundation at Kingston, as I'm in a different department, but you could contact the Art foundation course leader or head of department.

I understand that distance can put some people off from choosing a university, but from my experience, it is honestly worth it, especially for such a high demand course (so congratulations again for the offer!!).
I myself will be commuting next year, but the fact that my course is very well recognised, and my experience with Kingston University has been amazing, giving students a sense of community, I wouldn't trade it for anything else.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any more questions 🙂

I would highly suggest coming to our upcoming Offer Holder Day on Saturday 8 March, for which you should have received an invitation with a link to register. You will be able to meet teachers and current students, join in on different activities and "taster" sessions for your course, get all of the information that you still need, and explore the campus if you haven't already, and just experience life as a student here at Kingston.

Hi there,

I want to apologise as I was mistaken about the Offer Holder Day, which does not include all courses such as KSA's Art Foundation. Some courses have their own events for applicants and offer holders, so not everyone will have received an invitation to our March Offer Holder Day (which is an invitation only event).

KSA runs its own events for different courses, which will be organised in the next months, so be sure to check your inbox for future event updates related to your course!

Again, I apologise the confusion!

If you have any further questions, please let me know 🙂
