    Well it says that if we haven't heard by the 26th to contact them..I figured we'd start getting told around mid march because they can't send out letters/emails ON the 26th, that's just taking the piss considering we already have way shorter than most to sort out funding, accomodation etc.

    I say that because most other universities my friends applied to have already accepted them and some already have housing etc sorted..

    No problem! I was tempted to choose graphics and communication but I decided to dabble a bit in everything first (if i get in.) Where else have you applied to?
    Ah I was tempted to pick the diagnostic route too, we're like opposites! Haha

    CSM is the only place I've applied to atm, I want to go to Ravensbourne tbh but haven't applied there yet

    I already got my offer (only because I'm international, and they tell you whether or not you have an offer at the end of your interview), but good luck to everyone here! I still haven't been sent my offer, just been told verbally, so Im not sure what my conditions are.

    But I'm sure everyone will hear soon enough, since the applications for housing start in April, so you'll definitely find out before then!

    Hey, I'm currently at csm foundation doing graphic design and it's great! There is SO much work to do though, I never get a moments rest! It's worth it though, I already have an unconditional and Norwich university and hope to get into some more unis after my interviews
    I never heard my reply for csm foundation until the beginning of April (after my portfolio review was in feb last year) but good luck to all of you!

    No I can see where you're coming from.. I just feel kind of numb to the whole thing now. I've worried too much over it for the last month.

    Alright guys, been looking at loads of last year's threads and I'm betting that a majority of rejections will be sent out on the 24th of March and acceptances the next day. Both by email. Good luck to everyone, don't freak out if you get an email on the 24th, just guessing from last year's dates
    Hopefully will get to meet some of you in a couple of months!

    they look for different things, don't give up just yet!!


    i just got my conditions, apparently they're now making brits who were educated overseas do IELTs, so i guess i have to get that done.
    apparently IB language A and IGCSE first language english is not good enough.

    Zuza0813, I feel the same!

    Or like they opened it, looked at it in disgust and moved on..I like my work it's just a little controversial. If anyone there was religious I'm 100% sure I offended them..The sheet thing with the numbers on it for each section well, I'm pretty sure I got about 6 points.

    Thanks, I'll just have to keep waiting So they replied to you already ? But you were educated overseas so I guess that's somehow different to home applicants. Oh and well done for getting the condition. But you're British ? Then why they make you do the IELTs ??

    controversial is good They look for intriguing people who push the boundaries. Unfortunately I'm not one of them haha xD I mean I like to go against some stuff but in a mild suggestions haha xD

    basically yes. they requested for the offer in december after my interview (international office) but only gave the letter last week. at my interview they didn't actually state the IELTs requirements, so this is a bit frustrating.
