Get Ready is an online learning site for new undergraduate students joining UAL this year that helps welcome students to our friendly and diverse University community.
2020's Get Ready programme at London College of Communication opens on 14 September. Check the email account that you applied to UAL with to find instructions on how to join Get Ready.
Through the Get Ready programme, you will find activities that will help you get to know other students on your course, and help you practise some of the study skills that will help you to be successful during your time with us.
There are 2 parts to the Get Ready programme:
Part 1: Introduction to University
These activities are designed to help you prepare for your exciting journey ahead.
You will be introduced to some of the skills that will help you to study on your course, and get to know the staff and students you will be studying with.
These activities open on the 14 September.
Part 2: Live workshops
You will be invited to attend three live virtual workshops between 21 September and 1 October, along with other students from your course and programme area.
Workshop 1: Image making
In this session staff will introduce easy ways of making images at home with minimal equipment and materials.
Workshop 2: Reflective Writing
Learn how to produce short texts that will help you to track your progress and plan your development.
Workshop 3: Design a Postcard
In the final session you will make a piece of work in response to a short brief.
These sessions are designed for learning online and require no special skills, equipment or materials. They are a chance for you to practise some of the ways of working that you will experience on your course.
Student Lounge
