Deciding between Bath Spa and Manchester Met for fashion

Difficult deciding between Bath Spa and Manchester Metropolitan Fashion Degree. What advice can you offer?

MMU is a much bigger Uni and has a stronger reputation for industry links etc.
Bath Spa is a very small Uni, has no reputation for anything in particular and living in Bath costs as much as living in London

Hi @Parivrajaka

Hopefully you've managed to visit our campus already, and if you haven't taken a look at our Manchester Fashion Institute (MFI) webpages, I'd recommend doing so: Manchester Fashion Institute.

Our MFI is consistently ranked in the top 10 of fashion design universities in the UK. As a member of the British Fashion Council and a UK Fashion and Textile Association Education Partner, we maintain strong industry connections within a global network. Our students have access to industry-standard facilities, along with opportunities of guest lectures, collaborations, placements and internships.

MFI graduates have gone on to work for companies such as Gieves and Hawkes, Roland Mouret, Dolce and Gabbana, Donna Karan, Abercrombie and Fitch, Reebok and Rodier Paris. You can read more about our alumni stories here: MFI graduates.

Hopefully that gives you a bit of insight. If you have any questions you're welcome to ask them on here or contact our Course Enquiries team on 0161 247 6969 or at [email protected].

I hope this helps.
Mel 😊
