“I’ve had a valuable learning experience during my first year studying Film and Media. I’m enjoying the curriculum as well as the social opportunities, and I’m looking forward to the more hands-on and practical portion of our course which comes in the second year. I’m excited about what’s to come, so that tells you everything about how my first year has been.”

“It’s an honour for me to form a part of such an enthusiastic and hard-working student body as the one here. Working with these kinds of people has pushed me to ask more of myself, and ultimately achieve more. In my opinion you can’t put a price on that. Academics besides, I’ve made friends in their extracurricular clubs that will last a lifetime.”
