We’re committed to offering postgraduate distance learning opportunities to as many students as possible – this includes people who don’t come from an academic background but have experience working in the creative industry. This is why our MA application process is based on a points criteria and portfolio. But as the degrees are online distance education MA courses, IT skills are essential.
When studying you’ll have access to support and resources throughout your degree, including mental health and wellbeing support and online library access. We’re also really interested in your creative career and want to help support you in taking the next steps after your course.
