Goldsmiths is notorious for being a leading arts university and it offers a range of very unique tertiary courses — while the university has a great collection of academic staff of real industry experience and a great sense of community among the student cohorts, where Goldsmiths is significantly falters is its administration and those who run it. Frustrations in funding and structural decisions have an impact on the institution as a whole, leading to somewhat of a disappointing experience in some aspects of learning. Overall, at Goldsmiths what you put into your course is what you get out of it — that can often mean going the extra mile or ten and doing that without support. Great university, great students, great staff, but extremely disappointing administration. read more

Overall due to the unis strikes and boycotts it has been very difficult to learn properly and attend lectures, most students don’t attend as uni says it’s optional, so it’s not really worth the money for the education, lectures just read of slides and complain about their pay read more

Very good experience, but I hope that the number of people in a class is not too large, small class teaching will be better. In addition, the school's software sometimes crashes and is difficult to use read more

Would benefit from more clubs (that are actually active), but understandable that there isn’t much due to many reasons, such as Covid-19 and lack of student enthusiasm. read more

Again, accessibility could be massively improved. The university advertises that it is accessible for all However There is a severe lack of wheelchair access Especially in lecture halls Access needs have been delayed until my third year of study - which is poor when promised before even attending. read more
