Make it here. 4
A Foot in the Door When thinking about your career, there’s only one thing as important as your education – building industry experience. At UCA, you’ll be able to get both at once, building hands-on experience while you study through a range of opportunities designed to help you enhance your CV. From live industry briefs and work placements through to optional Professional Practice Years, there’s an option to suit you. Professional Practice Years Many of our undergraduate courses come with the option of an additional Professional Practice Year. If you choose this route, you’ll take a study break between years 2 and 3 to go on a year-long placement related to your studies – in a design or marketing agency, an animation studio, museum or gallery, for example. Learn more on the course pages at uca.ac.uk Work placements If an entire year on placement isn’t what you’re looking for, rest assured that our courses will provide you with built-in work experience opportunities. From six-week placements in fashion to working on popular TV programmes between classes, you’ll get exciting realworld experiences that give you the chance to put your knowledge into practice.
Live industry briefs One of the most exciting features of UCA courses is the opportunity to take part in live industry briefs and competitions. Just recently, our students have created limited edition coffee tins for Nescafe Azera, collaborated on the design of an exclusive luxury collection from shoe brand Sheme, and worked with the CATTs charity to create short films encouraging young people to check for early signs of cancer. Our students say... “Being selected for the TikTok x GFF residency gave me a chance to create garments for a major brand, as well as building confidence in my practice. It taught me so many things that will aid me in my creative journey, leaving me excited for the next stage of my career.” Yasmine Cerbah, BA (Hons) Fashion Textiles “My placement at JW Anderson empowered me to use my initiative and not be so paranoid about my decisions! Tasks where I was able to be more creative, such as assisting on photoshoots, helped me realise that I want to pursue a creative role in my career.” Anna Hale, BA (Hons) Fashion Management and Marketing “Our placement at Haygarth was so beneficial. We learned so much in a short time and were surprised at how many people were willing to offer us advice and answer our questions.” Karin Kajabova and Leanne Shaw, BA (Hons) Advertising

A student’s guide to UCA Canterbury UCA student Morgan Ruffell explains what he loved most about studying on our Canterbury campus. I just love Canterbury. It’s so cosmopolitan – a melting pot of people from all walks of life. It’s great that the UCA campus is so close to the city centre, just a short walk from all the sights, shops, cafés, restaurants and places to socialise. My friends who have stayed in halls or private accommodation have all had brilliant experiences – I think it’s a great place to really discover your independence. The campus itself is very welcoming and relaxing and it’s always open, so if you want to work on a project at any time, you can. And because it’s small, it feels personable – you get to know all the staff a lot better and they become friendly faces very quickly. Canterbury Cathedral
I particularly loved the library. The staff there were brilliant and it was a great place to socialise and study. What’s also handy is that there are two train stations and a great bus network, so everything around you is super accessible.

A student’s guide to UCA Epsom Epsom Town Centre
Rosebery Park
Graduate Sophia Day on why she found UCA Epsom the perfect place to start university life. What I would say about Epsom is this – it’s the best place to live when you’ve just moved out of home for the first time. Moving out can be so overwhelming, but I’ve found that living here has been so easy and relaxed. It’s not a very big place really, but it has everything you need close to hand. It has all the high street shops, banks, hairdressers, nail bars, pubs, cafés and a doctors’ surgery. If you didn’t want to venture further, you wouldn’t need to.
But what I really like about it is that, if you do feel like doing something a little faster-paced socially or broadening your work experience options, then London, Guildford, Kingston and Woking are all super close and cheap to get to. A lot of students travel to UCA Epsom from London, and for that reason it’s got a nice vibe about it. The campus itself is small and compact – just like Epsom, really. Everyone is here to work hard, and you can feel it. It’s got a really positive energy, with everybody putting the effort in, which makes you want to work hard, too. The buildings are cool and the library is the best – it’s really friendly and a lot of students socialise as well as work there. 11 13
A student’s guide to UCA Farnham Graduate Katie Hinton tells us her favourite things about studying at UCA Farnham.
New Ashgate Gallery
As an international student who arrived in the UK completely unfamiliar with Farnham, I have found it to be the most friendly and welcoming place. The UCA campus here is a bit of a labyrinth at first glance, but you do get used to it and it’s actually astonishing to see just how many incredible facilities it has, even for really niche subjects. The library is invaluable – to have such a vast range of books and magazines on every conceivable craft and design topic, all in one place, is just amazing. Everything in the town is so close to hand – all within walking distance. There are great links to London, so if you want to get some work experience or have a day of city culture then it’s easy to do. I love the community vibe of Farnham. There’s always something going on, and I really like the small-town feel. I come from a rural town, so I think I would find studying in a big city a bit overwhelming. Farnham is just the right balance between a big city and my home, and that, alongside the friendliness of everyone at UCA, has really helped me feel settled. 12 14

“My time at UCA was transformative – I started the course very much still in a teenager’s mindset and graduated with a clearer focus and drive towards my creative career.” – Jasmine Haskell

My UCA story
“My UCA experience was life-changing – not only academically, but also personally. For the first time, I felt like I could really be myself and express who I was in an environment surrounded by like-minded people. All aspects of the course really prepare you to step outside into the world of work, which can be really daunting.”
“I’ve always been creative, but I had this overwhelming feeling that going into a creative career would leave me with no money (a belief instilled from secondary school). UCA, and my course, definitely changed my opinion. I began to trust in myself more and realised that I could make whatever career path I chose work for me.”
Craig Maxwell graduated in Graphic Design at UCA Epsom in 2016 and is now a professional designer, creating music industry tour posters and running his own brand, Maxwell Makes.
Hannah Cunningham graduated in Fashion Business and Management at UCA Epsom in 2016 and is a make-up and SFX artist who won 4th place in the BBC’s Glow Up.
“I absolutely loved my time at UCA. I loved that my course didn’t just focus on the design aesthetics of creating a brand, but also the thinking behind it, which I know has definitely played a part in getting me where I am today with my stationery brand, Note and Shine.” Kelsey Layne graduated in Graphic Communications (now Graphic Design) at UCA Farnham in 2016, and now runs her own stationery brand, Note and Shine, which is stocked in Oliver Bonas.

Living at UCA Moving away from home is a big moment. Wherever you’re staying while you study – campus halls of residence or privately rented flats, houses or lodgings – you’re about to have your first taste of independence in a diverse and tight-knit creative community, and we want to make sure you feel settled and happy. Here’s what you need to know about accommodation at UCA. 1. We offer an accommodation guarantee If you’re a first-year student on a higher education course and you apply before the January UCAS deadline, we guarantee that we’ll find you a place to stay in your first year – either in our halls or in other rented accommodation. 2. Our accommodation team are here to help Each campus has a team of staff who can help you with your accommodation needs. They’ll provide you with all the information you need and be on hand to help with any issues, from maintenance and emergencies to complaints and organising residents’ committees. 3. It’s best to apply for your halls place early We have a range of halls accommodation on offer – including brand new buildings at UCA Epsom and UCA Farnham – and offer rooms to as many new full-time students who want to live in halls as we can.
18 26
If you’ve firmly accepted an offer from us, you can apply for UCA halls accommodation through the Applicant Portal. Don’t wait for your exam results to come through first – applying ASAP will give you the best chance of getting the accommodation you want. We prioritise applications based on need. Students who have a disability, new international students, and those who live furthest from campus will have priority for places in halls. 4. It’s worth considering a private rental If you don’t want to live in halls, or aren’t offered a room there, you can rent privately. Our accommodation team works with a network of agents and landlords near each of our campuses, and we’ll find you a homely and safe place to stay. Private rentals are a great option if you want to live with a smaller group of people, or are looking for a little more independence. This accommodation is often slightly separate from the campus and more in the heart of town life, which may suit you better. “We’re here to make sure everyone looking for a place finds one, and will be on hand to help with information and advice.” says Hayley Rowe, Accommodation Officer at UCA Farnham.

Portfolio Advice
34 36
At UCA, we’re know you’re about more than just grades. To us, exams are only part of the picture – your creativity and what you can do are just as important. Which is why, when you apply to most of our courses, we ask to see a portfolio or invite you to an audition. Your portfolio is a collection of your best work; you might want to show us sketches and paintings, digital art and design, photography, fabric swatches or patterns, sound work, musical compositions, short films, or even essays and creative writing.
At our Applicant Days (or in an online interview if you submitted your portfolio digitally), you’ll get the chance to talk us through your portfolio and find out more about us, and we’ll get the opportunity to meet you and learn more about you as a person. They usually take place between December and March, and are a fun, informal next step in the application process. We want to see what inspires you, what you create and what makes you unique. And if your course doesn’t ask for a portfolio but you still want to show us your work, we’d love to see it anyway.
Portfolio tips
1. Share your thoughts We’d like to know how you approach your work – what inspires you, how you come up with ideas, how you research them and what plans you put in place to make them a reality. A sketchbook (physical or digital) is a good way to do this. 2. Take us on a journey Show us your work’s journey from start to finish. Include drafts, unfinished products, edits. If you feel a particular project shows off your strengths, then put it in – even if it didn’t work out how you expected.
4. Keep it tidy A professional-looking portfolio will help you make a positive impression. Include about ten to 15 pieces of work and, if you’re compiling a physical portfolio, mount each piece on white or off-white board, and keep your portfolio either entirely portrait, or entirely landscape (it’s best not to mix). If you include any audio or video in your portfolio, it should be under two minutes long.
Remember that we’ll want you to talk us through your portfolio at your Applicant Day or interview, so prepare some notes, too.
5. Prepare to get digital If you can’t come to an Applicant Day, you can upload your portfolio to your Applicant Portal. Once we’ve received your application, we’ll let you know about next steps.
3. Put your best work front and centre Don’t save your show-stopper for the last page – get your favourite pieces in early. We want to be wowed by you! We’d also like you to put your work into some kind of order – perhaps arrange it chronologically, or by theme.
6. Steal the show For some courses, we’ll invite you to an audition, where you’ll be asked to perform a monologue. It’s best to pick the text you feel most comfortable with, as you’ll need to memorise it and be prepared to perform it in more than one way. More questions about your portfolio or audition? Visit uca.ac.uk/study/portfolio-advice or drop in to a portfolio advice session at one of our Open Days. 35 37
