    Far as i know limerick is better for painting and fashion and cork is better for sculpture, i could be wrong.

    Yeah, LSAD gives more freedom in terms of art and design, painting and illustration. Crawford is a bit more restricted, in that they don't so much want the individual to be a representational artist, but more of an abstract artist instead...it's a bit more artsy, I guess is what I am trying to say.
    Limerick's Fashion part of the college is very high profile and one of their students designed costumes for Lady Gaga, so there is alot of high quality work coming from the place.
    Some users on this board have found LSAD more down to Earth and less restrictive than Crawford, in that they guide you, but don't force you in a certain artistic direction, as certain art colleges do.
