The University of West London Students' Union: Winner of Students' Union of the Year at the NUS Awards 2018 & best SU from a major University in England 2019!
Starting University in September and want to meet your course mates? Already go to UWL and want to meet UWL's new starters? Join our Official Welcome Group for 2021-22 here 👇
Thank you to these students for sharing their experiences. BAME students deserve an inclusive, equitable experience that celebrates & promotes diverse voices.We know LCM will appreciate this feedback from students & graduates. We will work with students and LCM on this.
Representation is extremely important in the arts. Change must come from Drama schools and Universities first. This is why we have written to University of West London & London College of Music to demand positive change.
I stand by positive change at LCM.
