" Graduate student life is distinct from undergraduate, but overall it offers a good study environment. This is a good school if you want to pursue your career goals and have the agency to seek out additional campus and off campus opportunities. Professors and admin are wonderful for offering support and advice. "

" Overall, I think The University of the Arts is a solid school to go to. I definitely learned a lot while I was there. My teachers were great. I put not applicable for some of the questions because I didn't use those specifics resources enough to have a thorough opinion on those particular questions. Also I just graduated in May and decided to go into a design bootcamp so I haven't dived into job searching yet. "

" Great school, but it's a give and a take. Most students expect just a take, but you need to give a lot to learn a lot within the arts. Cool social scene, excellent professors from Universities in the area such as UPenn or Drexel, and amazing administrative staff. Because it's art, some of the professors need to be taken with a grain of salt, but if you get past that it's a very beneficial and effective program. "

" I learned and loved the Industrial (or hardware) Design coursework at my University. However, I quickly discovered that I enjoyed software UX Design more. Software-related UX Design courses are offered in the University's Continuing Education Department, but not at a degree'd level. That's a change I think the University should make since most companies now have a digital presence outside of its company website. "
