Student Life

As well as studying hard, we hope you'll have a lot of fun with us. We want your time at City and Islington to be exciting and life-enhancing.

There are lots of things that you can do alongside your main course, such as taking part in an activity that you already enjoy or developing a brand new interest. Here are some of the things you could do:

Dance, drama and music productions
History, social and political clubs and events
Events that celebrate the college’s many different cultures
Trips and projects that will help your studies
Sports, health and fitness, complementary health
Learn a new language or improve your existing skills
Visual arts, film and video, photography, multimedia and IT

You'll have a lot of great opportunities to meet and mix with other students and staff and to make new friends. Think about using these activities to build up your CV – they're just what university admissions tutors and employers want to hear about!

Student profile

Ambra Dessi

I think this course gives me good knowledge and a good background in working in business later on, says Ambra. The facilities at the Centre for Business, Arts and Technology are very good and it is very easy to do your work in the learning centre. I have to juggle my course work with taking care of my son, which is sometimes difficult, but I receive a lot of support from the teachers who are really good and always there when I've needed them. For me this has really been a great experience and I have had the luck that everyone at this College has had - I am in a very good group of students.

Ambra studied on the Modular Business Access to HE.
