Student Reviews

Exceptional Student Support and Learning
Sarah rated 5 out of 5 stars

The Glasgow School of Art, situated in the heart of the city at the City Centre is an excellent place for creatives to learn and evolve into better professionals. The curriculum is designed keeping in mind real-world problems and helps the students connect with people beyond their tutors. The school has a support system present for the students and the library has all...

Tutorial is good but lack enough teachers
Anonymous rated 3 out of 5 stars

I like Glasgow school of Art mainly because it was designed by Charles Rennie Mackintosh. The tutors are good with excellent tutorials. But there are not enough staffs in this school especial this year we have 60 students.

Inclusive education, old-school structure
Qingyang Jenny rated 4 out of 5 stars

Very inclusive art education content to create any form of art. But not enough abundant employment resources, and old school approach to education.I recommend it because I have what a grassroots and more communal art form and atmosphere here. But fewer resources for arts employment is the downside of the city.
