    Would it not be far cheaper to go to DIT?

    Might be worth you speaking to someone in The Interiors Association. They have a student representative.

    As someone who worked in the profession for 15 years and hired people i think it depends on what area of interiors you want to work in. Some courses are more suited to the decorative end of interiors and others the spatial planning. The other thing to bear in mind who you want to work for, some employers favour graduates from one college over another depending on the type of work you do.

    Yeah that's what I said! That other place is a few grand a year and that's just entry.

    Thanks for that. I'll get in touch with the association and see what options they have.
