Are yous international applicants and did yous get a confirmation email? I sent my Cardiff application on 17th Nov and I've just sent off my portfolio...


no im not international, are you? got a confirmation postcard, i had to send a self addressed stamped postcard with my portfolio. Don't think they send confirmations by email :L you could email them in a little while and ask them if theyve received it? are you international?

If you applied in September you should definitely be in the first lot of people that hear; I applied mid October and got my portfolio in for the 16th November. I can't see us hearing before Christmas now 'cos they'll have broken up, I guess we'll have to wait until February? :P

Oh cool! :biggrin:
I think no-one has work related to their course in their portfolio, as unis usually look for artistic abilities and creative stuff, so stop worrying yourself :wink: The only uni that has asked me to submit a portfolio at the moment is MSA, and they asked for a statement, 10-12 images and in my case, stuff I've been doing at uni. They gave me a list of what to include in the written piece and the images (eg a building I would like to visit, photography, fine art, etc) :smile:


what about you? are you full chinese?:smile: haha i just know lots of people did 3D this year so they have 3d work in their portfolio which is related to interior architecture and design.. ah i see, have you finished your written piece yet? when is your deadline? x

I sent my application off October 14th and got a portfolio request about a month after that and then the offer came a month after that. So I wouldnt worry they take their sweet time hha.

Did they request for an online one? or a physical portfolio ? Are you hoping to go to brookes too? If i get an offer ill definitely go there :smile:
Has anyone applied to GSA or Strathclyde and recieved an interview/portfolio request? I have also send my portfolio to Cardiff and having to wait really affects my nerves.

Me! I sent my application at the middle of November. I got the letter telling me that they have received the application a week ago. And they did not ask for portfolio. I heard that there will be an interview for architecture students but I am applying from Malaysia. Not sure what are they going to do with me
Does anyone know when Bath start giving out most of their offers? The website said that they make decisions after the January 15th deadline but some applicants have already gotten replies (Congrats, you guys!!).
I guess I'm just getting slightly impatient :tongue:

Hey everyone!
I just wanted to ask if you could give me some kind of advice for the portfolio? I couldn't find a reliable example... ://
