Description | Statement written about Stephanie Rickard's experience studying at Central Saint Martin's [CSM], describing how she left studying Theatre Design in California to move to London, and how her expectations of studying at CSM were not met during the three year course. She writes about the over-sized classes, the lack of materials, resources and practical training, the tutors disinterest in the students, her fellow classmate's attitudes, and the high fees paid by international students who do not receive any benefits. Stephanie also writes of her good experiences in work placements, where she learnt more than at CSM, and how the negative aspects of living in London made her realise that she has to work hard to gain things in life.
