Beautiful and artistic building. Nice place for some IG pictures. Its a ART school but open to public. Love the open Lift concept. Interesting place. Easy access via Rochor MRT.

As a visitor to Singapore, I found LASALLE College of the Arts by chance and was captivated by its architecture. I explored the exterior and took a number of photos, but could not explore inside. Designed by Singapore-based RSP Architects, the campus is an ingenious exercise of reworking space. From the outside, visitors are confronted by a black monolithic exterior of stone and aluminium punctuated with irregularly-shaped windows. This illusion of continuity disappears when visitors enter the building, with its six seven-storey-high buildings, linked by an atrium and sky bridges. In contrast to its exterior, the buildings here are stunningly graphic, with faceted glass walls and individual panels framed in black, each tilting at different angles.

My daughter was a Diploma student here and im being very honest, this is NOT a school I'd recommend to anyone. The school and teachers do not communicate with parents unless its for payment collection. My daughter did Fine Art here and in the name of "Self Study" , they are often left without any guidance to complete their work. Teachers often inform last minute for any class cancellations and they give Styrofoam instead of wood to do carving projects. I am TRULY DISAPPOINTED with La Salle and if you ask any previous students here, you'd get a clear picture of what's going on inside. I WILL NOT RECOMMEND THIS SCHOOL TO ANYONE.

The art school building is absolutely breathtaking, almost like something straight out of Westworld, which was actually filmed there. Its futuristic and one-of-a-kind design makes it well worth a visit. Unfortunately, the experience was spoiled by a rude security guard who insisted that sitting was completely forbidden—no benches, no steps, nowhere at all. So, if you're just passing through and hoping to take in the sights, don’t count on being able to sit and relax for even a moment.

Writing this review in response to how my application was handled very poorly I will admit I submitted it late by a day, but that was due to the staff's inadequate knowledge and told me to use an OpenCert which was wrong so I had to go find my physical certs and that wasted time But all that does not justify why I applied the same time as a friend who just finished her A Levels, both went in at the start of February right after the Open House. She auditioned in late February and got in. While mine was pushed so far until mid April and what I noticed was of the 7 candidates, 5 were from ITE, as we found out while waiting, and this led me to believe they think that A Level & Poly students alike are "smarter" and ITE ones are "stupider" And 1 of the 7 was from Poly whose first slot was in Feb, but missed it and got another slot in Apr! Ultimately I was rejected and while upset, is not the focal point of my review, rather the way my certs got me treated. LASALLE should NOT be picky based on their certs and as such us ITE students have no chance to appeal as "it is too late in the semester" but those who audition earlier can as they were given earlier slots. Seemingly based on certs. Those who apply first should audition first, and not have LASALLE cherry pick slots for candidates based on certs. I wanted a Diploma in Performance so much but given how they treated me, I won't at all be shocked if my slot for the AY2026 gets pushed to April. Time will tell as to the validity of my claims. If once again I get delayed, it's clear they want to give less priorities to Higher NITEC holders Because if this is the case and I get shelved to Apr 2026, I will NOT be returning to LASALLE. At this point, their claims to give students equal opportunities and overlook differences such as disabilities (I have some), race or qualifications. All of that all feels like lip service to exude a positive image I'm not making excuses to soften the blow of rejection, but recapping how unfair it is to be unable to appeal because I "auditioned late". I only "auditioned late" only because they kept me until the last slot, 15 April when I applied on 3 February If I get the last slot again, it is clear that despite their "equal opportunities" claim, LASALLE gives priority to A level and Poly diploma holders, and give less opportunities to Higher NITEC holders. My application for AY2026 was submitted the day after my rejection, being mid May 2025 and will be with the general intake in Oct 2025. So there is no excuse to delay me to May 2026 then unless they truly segregate based on qualifications If I get delayed again to Apr 2026 for the last slot with other ITE graduates, I will void my application and pursue my dreams of being an actor elsewhere, anywhere where I do not get segregated because of my certs. -- In short, I was given the last audition in Apr for a Diploma in Performance in February. I was rejected and I couldn't appeal because I auditioned late. And I only auditioned late because LASALLE gave me a late slot. And when I arrived I was with mostly ITE graduates many of whom applied in late March, even April and mine was in early February, which to me means slots are given based on certs and not a matter of first come first serve. In film, rejection will happen, but the lead up to it is what frustrates me I'm still very heartbroken as I applied in February and wasted months until April and turned away in May. Honestly I want to withdraw my application for AY2026 seeing how I was held back. My ambition was just learn the craft of being an actor And a large part is due to LASALLE shelving ITE students until the end, where it's too late to appeal. For rejection, I've accepted it. If someone outdid me, that is fair and square. I applied early yet was kept until the last slot where I can't appeal. And that is what hurts me so much. If I could appeal like those with early slots, I would not be writing this. But I could not, hence the review. This review is not to hurt LASALLE's image. I only wanted to bring to light what I went through
