    Heard from Brighton today, they want me to create a flickr account with 5-10 images. So that shouldn't be tooo difficult. (I hope)
    same - they've taken ages to do anything .

    were you invited to interview at lcc by letter or email?
    i don't think i'll get one as i haven't done a foundation but still kind of hoping.
    I just got a status update on UCAS from LCC, no email or letter...

    Good luck anyway mate, but i think you should do a foundation!

    With the tagging on Flickr, are you doing your surname, name and ucas id all as one tag or each seperately? The letter doesn't really make it clear!

    Brighton sent me the same, that letter is so confusing! I think I'll do the tags separately - wbu?

    P.s what the hell is a "plink" in the tagging bit?

    Nice to see other people are applying for Edingburgh Napier too. i know GSA ja ECA are really popular and hard to get in but i don't really know anything about Napier. so any information anyone has is welcome !
    by the way, have you heard anything from Napier yet? i only got Acknowledgement Letter but no portfolio request yet. GSA and ECA asks portfolios from everyone, right? last year i applied for schools in england and LCC didn't even ask a portfolio, just invited me straight for an interview.

    Yes, I've heard from Napier. First they'd asked me for all my qualifications scans and then two weeks ago they wrote "We would like to invite you to submit a portfolio of your work for further consideration". It was actually a lot of work (three assignments), but I managed to send it by post today. The deadline is 8 February.

    my email from GSA says anything sent after the 27th may not be accepted. so how i understad it is that i have whole friday time to send it in.

    i hadn't even sent my application two weeks ago (yes, i waited almost till the last minute...) so i guess there's still hope that i'll hear from them.

    Good luck Please remember that they have to get your physical portfolio before the deadline and it can take around a week to deliver if you're from abroad.

    I've done the tags seperately at the moment. The plink bit was for the email subject I think. I think it's the flickr link, but I'm not entirely sure! They've made it so complicated!
