Apparently they looked at them on Monday! I just want to know! Do you know when we find out about interviews? -I worked out that if they tell us 2 weeks before then they have to tell us by next Monday! Surely they can't leave it longer than that! Which college did you apply to? Good Luck! :smile:

I applied to St Annes and yeah, I understand your logic but they might not :/

Ooh yeah, does anyone here have an online portfolio? If you do, could we possibly have a look? :smile:

It's annoying that UCL don't ask for them, considering the amount of applications they must get. I mean, there must be people applying who don't stand a chance of getting in, and yet they still have to pay to have their portfolio looked at...Unless I read that wrong on their website?

I'm now a bit worried that other people are getting interviews already...We haven't even sent off our applications yet! In fact, I haven't even finished my personal statement. Our college deadline is the end of the second week of December, then they get sent off mid-January. Has anyone else not applied yet?

Everyone from My College has applied, our deadline was 29th October. Some people already have all 5 offers and some Universities have deadlines before the UCAS deadline of the 15th January.

Like where? I mean, I'm sure if our deadline is in December then it'll be fine, but it's still a bit worrying...Also, the UCAS art fair thing in London isn't til the 6th December (which we're being forced to go to), and it wouldn't make sense for them to have it then if they expect everyone to have applied already...At least, that's what I'm hoping! :s-smilie:

i'd say don't worry that much, as long as you apply before the deadline comes, you should be fine. You shouldn't feel late only cos many students have applied already - concentrate on really making your personal statement and portfolio stand out

haha, well... It was ok, I think. The test didn't really give you much room to be very creative (there were questions like: make a model of a person sitting in the room; draw a skeleton; draw the room from above etc)
And the interviews were ok, honestly I was expecting something really scary and, I dunno, grilling, but the questions weren't that bad. But I did think they were kinda rushed: for instance, in my ruskin interview there were 5 tutors asking questions one after the other and it only lasted 20 minutes, so I dunno how fair an opinion they could make of me after just 1 or 2 question asked per tutor.
Well, that's pretty much it, I guess.... I'll let you know when I receive my letter :biggrin:

Wow- How many interviews did you have? I'm reapplying next year but they gave me good reasoning not to accept me- they liked my work, but i'm doing A Levels in one year, so don't even have the AS results as all my exams are this year so yeh... Do you have any pictures of your portfolio online so I can see what sort of work they like! Fingers crossed for a good letter! :smile:

Hi, I applied for Fine Art last year, and I'm reapplying this year. Currently thinking Brighton for Critical Fine Art, Goldsmiths, Wimbledon (sculpture) and Leeds Uni. No idea for a 5th!
Last year I went for Goldsmiths, Middlesex, Chelsea, Leeds Col. of Art and Design and Newcastle. Had an interview at Notts Trent too. So I know a few things about the interviews and what-not in case anyone needs to know anything :smile:
