This year has been anything but ordinary. I have felt overwhelmed, anxious and happy during my time here. I have learned a lot and I can’t wait to see my classmates, and the friends I’ve made in person.
Veronica Yang
This year I've lost myself, and found myself. I am myself.

Foundation year gave me the courage to shape my art in new ways. Emily Carr gave me the confidence to take risks, explore new ideas, and helped open my mind to think deeper about my process

Although I've experienced my first year in university entirely online, I've made all sorts of unforgettable memories and have met many new friends. I'm looking forward to seeing where my journey to becoming a better artist takes me!

Cunyi Shen
Learning online was a new and unforgettable experience. Coming to ECU has been life-changing and I'm glad I came here instead of another university. I have a new understanding of art, and how I see my future.
Amber Jorgensen
Being in Foundation year during a pandemic made me realize just how important art is when it comes to finding and inspiring hope in not only yourself, but those around you…as well as the fact that room temperature coffee keeps you humble.
Hoang Le Do
Foundation year was quite fascinating. I got to experience things I'd often avoided. Throughout this process my interests grew and I'm now more confident trying new things.

Zoom art school made lemonade out of some super unfortunate lemons.
