Geotag  Glasgow, Scotland

WHY STUDY IN CITY?
Glasgow has been voted European City of Culture and is home to the national Scottish ballet, orchestra, and chorus. It’s also known as one of the U.K.’s top cities for both traditional and extreme sports. Glasgow offers students the perfect mix of trendy west end cafés and restaurants, a wide range of shopping in the sophisticated Merchant City, and the green space of the country parks surrounding the city.

ABOUT THE PROGRAM
More than a few internationally recognized artists, designers, and architects have earned their chops in the studios of GSA, one of the few free-standing art schools left in Europe. Students majoring or minoring in art can choose from fine art, design, photography, fashion, textiles, silversmithing, jewelry, sculpture, and architecture at this world top-10 art and design school.

Join GSA’s Creative Network and connect with 20,000 students, alumni, creative professionals, and collaborators. Get inspired by displays of works by students and local and international artists at the Reid Building. Stock up on supplies right next to campus, at Paint and Mortar.

GSA students love lively Glasgow so much, 60% of them decide to stay after graduation.

You can’t leave Scotland without experiencing its raw natural beauty. Your IFSA Highland excursion (included) makes it easy. Explore icons like the Three Sisters peaks, Loch Ness, and Dunnottar Castle, as you share an insider’s view of the historical events that shaped this country’s history and culture from 1700 on.
