This uni is great for arts. Lecturers are friendly, uni has nice surroundings and the facilities that they provide are great as well. This university takes the pandemic very seriously, so I feel safe and welcome. The lectures that uni provides us with (during pandemic) are good quality. I believe there could be added more learning content in the program, but overall everything is good.

London's prettiest university. Easily walkable and well signposted from nearby New Cross, New Cross Gate, Deptford, Deptford Bridge DLR and Greenwich stations. Friendly staff. Costa Coffee right outside.

A great university for the arts. Helping today for setting up for the fine arts degree show in the modern Ben Pimlott facility for final year students. As expected there is a degree of incoordination and last minute panic as nobody is in charge or knows what and when thing are happening. Goldsmiths has a more traditional teaching style similar to Oxbridge colleges of letting the students themselves decide what to do rather than the instructional style of most other institutions resulting in exceptional creativity.

Campus was very nice, I visited for open day but it seems to mainly cater for international students. I couldn’t tell you how good the teaching quality is however.

Excellent place, even for departments outside of the arts. The computational neuroscience masters is exceptional. Very intensely academic, rigorous and truly prepare you for a postgraduate lifestyle if you choose a PhD or academia. However, it seems like you're outside of the campus' sphere of activity if you're not in the arts. This was not the case at my prior university, which was way worse (

Must go to their open day and ask questions to understand the values and way they teach their subjects, if you want to be creative and produce very contemporary work pieces of art or media then their degree of media and communication may suit you. They do not offer a sandwich course for this degree, not sure about the others
