"Napier checked off all the boxes for me."
When It came down to making a decision about where I would attend graduate school, Napier checked off all the boxes for me. Although new, the program is comprised of valuable courses taught by active members in the preforming arts industry. Being a part of the first cohort means learning and growing alongside the professors while collaborating to create a worthwhile program that meets the needs of every student.
"I found [the application process] straight forward and the staff incredibly helpful when a question arose."
As someone in peforming arts, my application process looked a little different. I auditioned first through URTAS and was then asked to a callback and interview. After being offered a place in the cohort, I filled out the school application. I found it straightforward and the staff incredibly helpful when a question arose.

"The city is accessible with great public transportation."
Even on my worst day here, I live in a city with castles. It may sound silly, but being surrounded by such great history and intense connection to nature is lovely. I adore Edinburgh, there is always something going on. The city is accessible with great public transportation, and I have yet to go into a cafe or pub that did not offer a wide array of vegetarian foods.
