“My course was really broad and really flexible, which I loved,” she explains. “I was able to explore textiles, something I’d never had the chance to do before. Being welcomed into the textile and fashion rooms, even though I wasn’t studying those pathways specifically, was amazing.” Atiyya Mirza BA (hons) in Art & Design

The College has given me unconditional support. I felt fully safe and supported at every step of the way to express myself creatively. The emphasis on being resilient really stood out to me and it has kept me going. Doing my degree at a College has been one of the best decisions I have ever made, because of the close-knit community which I may not have had elsewhere.
