    I'm happy that other people are concerned about the interviews, I came on here to have a look at whether people were in the same situation as me, which you are Got the letter with the 4 on the back about interviews in December/January and haven't heard anything haha..

    I'm so nervous about the idea of an interview. What will it be like? I suppose it's different for whatever course you choose, I've applied for Advertising, do you think I just have to tell them why I want to do it etc etc?

    Wow that was fast, I've gotten unconditional offers for both English and Journalism! I guess they just judged their decision on my application and the work I sent in.
    unconditional? have you already finished your alevels/college? Well done by the way

    what course have you got an interview for?
    Journalism

    Finally got my interview letter for Digital Animation at Falmouth which will be during march which is excellent as it will give me a good amount of time to make a cracking showreel! Good luck to everyone else!

    I live in Cornwall and I'm applying to Falmouth for Interior Design.
    I love Cornwall and I'm so lucky to live here, it's so laid back and it's probably nice to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life. For those who are scared of getting bored,,, you will never get bored in Cornwall. Guarentee there is always something to do. Anyway my interview is tomorrow so I better use my time wisely. Good luck

    I have an interview for Advertising on the 6 feb,
    But I can't go because I can't get there, aha.

    When is the best time to phone to rearrange, does anyone know?

    And from a completely hypothetical situation...What would happen if you just couldn't go to the interview in any way shape or form? Do you just definitely lose out on an offer?

    I had my interview last week and it went brilliant! Applied for Film, got an unconditional! Not sure how rare this is at Falmouth to get an unconditional but all my teachers have said it doesnt happen often unless you've finished a levels etc! So happy! Good luck everybody, it was really nothing to worry about though as it was so easy!

    Congrats on the unconditional. The film course looks quite interesting, reasonably well equipped. If you've got a decent camera, I'd bring it with you, but my flatmate is (was, cause she broke it!) getting by absolutely fine with her compact digital camera.

    If anyone has any more questions about the uni (although Natalie and Sarah have answered most of them quite well), or about the course I'm on (Theatre), or even any of the other courses around the uni, I can do my best to answer them. Same with any accommodation questions etc. Best of luck to all of you, and hopefully I'll see you around campus next year

    Thanks! Yeah I'm at college at the moment but I went to high school in America and took the SATs and all that, so I think they made their decision based on that.

    I applied for this course also, got my interview letter through yesterday but they scheduled the interview the day before I have another in Cumbria so had to change to 28th! Didn't help that I also live in Sussex! Small world!
