Hii! I haven't gone to any of those but Loughborough is number 1 for fashion in the UK right now so I'd go there if I were you. I'm sure wherever you go you'll do great though!

Hi @kavyajainn

For employment opportunities have a look at the grad shows/presence of each university at GFW in London https://www.instagram.com/officialgfw?igsh=MTZ1aWc4b3k5OXRwdQ==

in terms of student life they’re quite different places - what sort of town/city do you live in at the moment? Are you looking for somewhere similar or different? Do you have any hobbies/interests/socialising that you particularly enjoy or want to do more of during university?

Our career prospects for Fashion are really good! with students going on to work at Calvin Klein, Victoria Beckham, Burberry and many more places!

We offer lots of support for international students from applying to post graduation!

The social life is really good in Brighton! We have lots of societies here at Brighton, and if there are none that interest you, you can make your own and get some funding from the students union to host events. We also have some 'give it a go' events at the beginning of each semester to try new things and meet new people. There are also loads of bars close to the campuses and in the city centre. We also have loads of nightclubs in the city and by the seafront as well as the gay club Revenge. Most clubs and quite a lot of bars have student nights/hours and quite a few have student themed events at the beginning of the year.

Living in Brighton is also pretty cool! We are surrounded by some of the most beautiful nature, from the seafront only 15 mins away from campus to the South Downs if walking in nature instead of rocks is more your style 😂. We are also one of the sunniest campuses in the UK! Along with the tons of pubs and bars in the city we also have a massive library and lots of independent cafes and restaurants.

I hope this helps you, feel free to ask any questions!

thanks i’ll definitely have a look at those! yeah i know they’re all completely different which is what makes the decision so hard. i’m an international student from dubai so i’m used to a big city, and i love socializing and going out so a uni where i could find that would honestly be great :smile:
