Same to you, fine art photography. I would really like to show them my most recent stuff but my sketchbook for that isnt at all presentable. Really nervous and then I can tell its going to be a horrible waiting game bc I doubt they've even given out all their interviews yet and I hear some aren't till mid march. :/

Does anyone know the deadline date for submitting full portfolio to Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art (Dundee Uni)? Having a tough time finding a date online..

I applied for Fine Art and I emailed them asking when they wanted a portfolio and they said they'd contact me back in due course, was pretty vague and I'm yet to get an email from them about it. Stressing! haha

Ah ok thank you! My teacher told me there was a specific date each year and he was sort of worried that I didn't know this date ... but I thought they emailed you if they actually wanted to see your folio with the date so I presume that is the case :biggrin:

I live in Denmark. I'm trying to keep calm thinking that maybe first they invite the UK students (even though it may not be true :biggrin:)

Or they passed out after seeing my incredibly impressive portfolio and haven't regained consciousness for 3 months :biggrin:

This waiting drives me nuts. Oh look, a flamingo :flamingo:

they are really friendly and informal asking the usual questions like why here and to talk about your work

Hello :smile:

I'm currently waiting on ECA for First Year Studies, kinda getting worried now as I haven't heard anything about an interview yet. My surname is R and I'm from the south of England - think that makes a difference?

Anyone else heard anything?

I'm so nervous, I can't focus on anything! :confused:

I applied for both the BA Fine Art and the MA History of Art/Fine Art course. The interview counts for both of the courses! Have you applied?

I'm M and from London, and heard back today. I'm not sure if it's done alphabetically or just in the order that they come in, though. It's so stressful - have literally been refreshing my email every few minutes
good luck!

Oh cool! (to you applying to same courses) Well I got the email for the BA interview then a couple hours later I got another email saying that it would count for both the courses.. maybe there is just a delay in you getting the other email

Thanks a lot, have emailed them to be on the safe side.

Which is your preferred MA or BA?
