Foundation Course

'I can say, hand on heart, that the people I met, the friends I made, the knowledge I gained, the skills I learned and the overall experience of being a part of this unique place was life changing. Everybody should add studying at LSA to their 'to do' list...and do it!'

Hans Clausen, 2nd year Sculpture ECA

The Foundation Course is the only one of its kind in Scotland. It allows students to progress straight onto three-year degree courses in England, and into either first or second year in a Scottish art college. As art colleges increasingly expect applicants to have decided on a discipline for degree study upon entry, the opportunity offered students by the Foundation Course to try different disciplines and media is becoming more important than ever.
