Just how precious is your studio
time?
Well there are 365 days in a year - 52 weeks
but only 30 weeks in an academic year - that’s 210 days
and 26 of those weeks are dedicated to studio time
the other 4 weeks are dedicated to formal feedback & folder preparation
out of this you are timetabled and obliged to attend 2.5 days a week
this equates to 65 days studio time
studio sessions are a minimum of 5hrs per day 10am - 4.00pm
this equates to 325 hours dedicated studio time or 13.5 days....
....so as we can see studio time is indeed very precious
How can i maximise my studio time?
well there are 30 weeks in an academic year & you are free to attend five days a week
and the studios are open from 7.30am until 9pm - 5 days a week
so that’s 150 days open access -13.5hrs a day - 5 days a week
so you can work to the required minimum
or strive for the free maximum?
Please relish & cherish your
studio time because it is your time.
And remeber, you will never have this opportunity again.
