It seems that in order to get any information on a course i want to do i have to apply and be accepted onto the course, then i can finally get some information, how stupid is this?

Well, they wouldn't want to waste money on producing literature for time wasters, would they. At least if you have to apply to get the details, they know that you are going to apply!!

yes but if u don't know much about what the course involves and u apply anyway and pay etc, then find out it's not what ur looking for ur a bit screwed.

also the manage ment at Leicester college are useless anyway. My dad's worked there for god knows how many years, over 25 i think, and over that time he built up a huge filing system of resources etc for his course that was all layed out how he wanted it. The he goes back after the easter break to find out the whole filing cabinet has been chucked and the files put back in a new filing cabinet in totally the worng order aming it a nightmare for my dad. All this was because the filing cabinet was the wrong colour

Alas I was merely trying to inject some humour.

 

I do sympathise and agree that it is pretty damn crap of them. Can they not even give you the number of a tutor to phone up and chat to about it?

i've got a name and number, but i know from experience the chance of gettin thru to them is little to none, especially at thi time of year. Ah well my appologies if i seemed like i was goin off on one. Just find it a little frustrating. I don't think i'm ognna bother with this course as looking at the small amount of info i have it's geared more towards people wanting to get into sound engineering for TV/Film/Stage etc. So will keep lookin for soething else i think

Students ....

Si, if you get Sound On Sound, in the classifieds in the back, they have loads of places advertising for Sound Engineering Courses.....Not sure if you can get access to their classifieds on the web www.sospubs.co.uk I think is the address

What you need information on the course for, are you actually thinking of doing any work??
