Required subjects for Urban Design & Planning (with Integrated Foundation & Professional Practice Years) BSc Hons at University for the Creative Arts (UCA)

We consider the strength of our applicants’ portfolios as well as their grades and we therefore may make offers which are lower than our standard entry criteria of 112 tariff points. This may be to students who have faced difficulties that have affected their performance and who were expected to achieve higher results - in these cases, a strong portfolio is especially important. We regularly admit students with a tariff much higher than our standard 112 requirement, and applicants who show potential but aren’t quite at the stage to be able to succeed on the course are offered a 4 year degree with an integrated foundation year which has a standard entry requirement of 32 tariff points.

The staff and on-site team is friendly however, there is little on-campus organised activity by the way of clubs or societies which was disappointing when joining the University for the first time. The campus is quite small, so there aren't many facilities for social gathering, and the University 'bar' is outdated and out of touch with the range of students that attend. In terms of social activities, there definitely needs to be more on offer to help students enjoy their uni experience, and key spaces (namely the bar) need updating and better advertisement for students. The terrace outside could be used more regularly, aswell as having designated and well designed outdoor tables and chairs for students to meet during breaks. The library + studios could also be open way later and available for students on weekends. Students should be encouraged more to mix between different courses and studios. We want more events + talks to stay inspired! read more
