London College of Contemporary Arts (LCCA)

Originally established as a specialist boutique arts institution with around 500 students LCCA’s mission was to deliver primarily creative courses. These spanned fashion, visual arts and media, supported by limited business and hospitality provision. It concentrated on providing sub degree higher education (HNC/HND) with a small number of top ups and short courses to provide progression opportunities.

Today, there are 12K+ students enrolled on full degree programmes at LCCA – validated by University of the Creative Arts (UCA) through a partnership facilitating collaboration, growth and expansion.

LCCA has a reputation as a dynamic, innovative, and flexible institution offering high-quality degree programmes in partnership with UCA, the second highest-ranked specialist creative university in the UK for 2025. It provides a unique learning environment emphasizing experiential learning and fostering creative, business-oriented mindsets – equipping students with the knowledge and connections needed to succeed in the creative industries and beyond. The college’s commitment to diversity, inclusivity, collaboration, and community creates an inspiring atmosphere for students to pursue their ambitions and shape creative careers.
