<p dir="ltr">One review for Arts University Plymouth on StudentCrowd says: “Arts University Plymouth is a small university run by artists for artists. It is the place to be as a creative. The facilities are incredible and no matter what course you study, you are able to use any facilities on Workshop Wednesdays to experiment with your practice further. The tutors care so much about the students and push you to be your best self. Due to it being a small university, I have found that the contact time I have with my tutors is 100 times more than my friends had with their tutors who studied in London, Brighton etc. Nothing is too much for them.”</p> <p dir="ltr">The news that Arts University Plymouth was the top ranking arts university in the UK on StudentCrowd comes soon after we were shortlisted for University of the Year and shortlisted in three other categories of the Whatuni Student Choice Awards (WUSCAs) 2024. </p> <p dir="ltr">In 2022 Arts University Plymouth won Best Small or Specialist Institution of the Year in the WUSCAs and in 2023 the leading arts university won second place in the same category. In 2024 Arts University Plymouth is the UK’s only specialist arts university to make the shortlist for any of the main categories of the WUSCAs.<br /></p>

I seem to make more new friends every week… All in all, attending Arts University Plymouth is proving to be one of the greatest experiences of my life… To be creative and express myself the way I want to. Everyone can be themselves. It is like entering another world walking through those doors each day. A creative paradise!”</p> <p dir="ltr">Arts University Plymouth was also the highest scoring specialist arts university in the UK for Learning Resources in the most recent National Student Survey (NSS), recognising that students find it easy to access a wide array of subject-specific resources at the leading arts university.
