    When you go in, you must have what they ask you to prepare ready. You have a long chat with other applicants and a tutor, then you have a one on one interview with the course leader. It will be fine, I got a conditional a few days after! good luck

    Yay thanks! Nerves are much steadier now. Had my UCA Epsom interview, all i can say is that it was a complete pile of rubbish. I would hate to go their, but I feel the interview went well considering how negative I was about the area!

    anyone else applying for music journalism?

    I had a look at UCA Epsom back in June! I liked it only because it had a direct link to London...but anyway, I didn't apply.

    Good luck with everything
