Leeds College of Art is my first choice I have an interview there in march but Northumbria is a close second, now that I've had an offer I'm thinking about it more. Is it your first choice?

Yeah I knew I wanted to go there but going to the open day confirmed it. It was just a lovely atmosphere and the course talk session we had was really good :smile:

I'd reccommend going to an open or applicant day.

Nice one! I received my offer before Christmas for Web Design & Development. Have you chosen to do a placement year as well or is yours just a 3 year course?

I only chose courses with a years work placement, as I have pretty much 0 IT work experience only accounting & retail (which actually helped to narrow down my choices more :P )

Just got the email for applicant open day, will probably go on Sat 15th Feb.

Haha unlucky. I chose a Web Design & Development with placement year as well. I have a lot of experience with web design etc. but I will definitely benefit from a placement year.

So is Northumbria your firm choice or still undecided?

I went for Northumbria, Worcester, Loughborough, Teeside and Edge Hill.
I pretty much applied for places that had a) a Placement year b) Relevant skills/languages in the modules.

Then I'll visit each one to really make my choice.

it's nice but the rooms aren't as big as say stephenson building. also I don't think you really have a seating area there, it's just one big kitchen with plastic table and chairs at one end. what other accommodation you thinking of applying for?

Stay at the Premier Inn, then complain you had a bad night's sleep and you get refunded :wink:

That's what we did when my Mum and I went up for the open day (she only complained as we did actually have a bad night - clubs right over the road so was quite noisy)
