Advice for an U.S. international student focusing on graphic design
Hello everyone, I will be a U.S. international student come this September and I am trying to make a decision on my top three universities. I have been accepted into
University of Creative Arts
Kingston University
Manchester Metropolitan University
London Metropolitan
University of East London
My top 3 are the first three listed as I know the other two aren't necessarily the best for the arts. Granted they ranked pretty well on The Guardian for my major.
My main concerns are internship opportunities, professor engagement, community, support after graduation, and industry connections. I am a very motivated student and I tend to work on outside projects, keeping myself pretty involved in the design world.
Any alumni or current students at these universities have any input?
