Highlights: An Arcadia program isn't just about enrolling you in an overseas institution however. It's about all of the services that we provide. Before you go, you can contact our program manager for advice on the application process, choosing courses, or simply what you should pack. Once you arrive, our resident director will lead an orientation program in London that will introduce you to the culture, history and politics of England as well as prepare you for the academic challenges of studying in a different educational system. During the semester, you can expect to participate in excursions that are designed to allow you to reflect on the learning that is taking place outside the classroom.

It's almost impossible to explain in words the educational and cultural experience that study abroad can be, but you can be sure that Arcadia is there to help you get the most out of that experience.

Westminster's School of Communications and Creative Industries is considered one of the largest, best-equipped and most prestigious centers of learning in the UK for studies in art and design, photography, fashion, film, music, journalism, and mass communication.
