    Hello
    I have applied for the broad Fashion BA.
    My interview is next Thursday I've been asked to do 5 new pieces of work, I'm a bit stuck on what to take to be honest, I'm thinking of taking a mood and design development board and 5th scale of the final design pattern and a fashion theory essay to show variety.

    Hi everyone. I am thinking of applying next year but I am not sure of the area. I'd like to experience a city so I am afraid there's nothing to do in Galashiels and that I would get bored there. Are there job opportunities? Thanks!

    hiya, is anyone doing business at galashiels? I can only find people on here doing fashion. I've accepted a conditional and I've got the grades, I'm just waiting for them to change it to unconditional. I've never actually been to galashiels though, anyone know much about it?

    hi! yes i've accepted. so the welcome pack won't be sent to our current home? can we leave the freshers program halfway (if we have something important to attend to) and come back later?
