Past Review Depressing
That I want to pursue psychology and not art for the time being. That was probably the only useful clarity that I gained, but it wasn't worth the months of wasted time. - Wellesley College View Entire Review

A student studying abroad with University of the Arts London - Integrated Study Abroad
I learned so much about other cultures, as well as a lot about myself. I was able to travel to a total of 14 countries and 26 cities and every second, every dollar was worth it. - Stephens College View Entire Review
I learned about myself, I learned about other people and cultures from around the world, and I learned more about Fashion than I ever have anywhere else. - Missouri State University View Entire Review
Past Review Lots Of Freedom
I learned how to work as an artist on my own. It was worthwhile but the school while offering the facilities did not give us much guidance or assistance in making use of them. The classes were not as thorough as my home institution. - Middlebury College View Entire Review

i learned how to push myself and found out what my real interests are outside of class requirements. - Cornell University View Entire Review
Past Review London
Yes - Western Washington University View Entire Review

Past Review Living The Dream
I learned about the large amount of both similarities and differences between us and other nations, I learned how to communicate with those who do not speak English fluently, and most of all, I learned about myself. Was it worthwhile? YES - Indiana University of Pennsylvania / IUP View Entire Review
Yes completely, I learned about how a different approach to teaching fine art is invaluable to the way I continue my art practice. - University of Hartford View Entire Review
I learned a sense of self confidence and open-mindedness. Traveling to different countries and adjusting to a new culture has showed me what I can do for myself. - University of Hartford View Entire Review
I can survive and adapt anywhere I go either in a country that speaks English or one that can't. I know that I can take care of myself, I know where I would like to live one day and where I don't want to live. I've learned about the politics and the issues of other countries and how people perceive Americans from people all over... - University of Texas - Arlington View Entire Review
I learned some things about myself, as I learned about the city I was in- because it's impossible to learn about living in London without learning how well I can live in a new city. I made wonderful friendships, and it was very worthwhile. I fell in love with the city, and I do hope I can get back soon. - Massachusetts College of Art View Entire Review
- University of Wisconsin - Stout View Entire Review

About

Integrated Study Abroad Programs provide students the opportunity to join current University of the Arts London undergraduate students for a semester in the Autumn, in the Spring or for a full academic year. What to expect: This program is designed to promote cultural integration into the UK higher education system and into UK student life. Students undertake the same coursework and schedule as a home student. On the integrated program, students should anticipate independent-style learning and a collaborative environment with huge emphasis on discussion-based learning and project work. It is expected that the student is currently majoring/minoring in the elected subject or has a developed portfolio in their chosen subject area. 

Optional Modules: Students enrolled on integrated Study Abroad programmes can also take 1 optional module at the start of the autumn or spring term. Each module runs for 3 weeks and is worth roughly 4 US credits.
