Fine Art 2015 Applications

Anyone heard from Chelsea yet? 😬

Hey

I've applied for Fine Art at Kingston, Falmouth, Westminster(mixed media fine art), UCA Canterbury and UCA Farnham.
Has anyone had an interview at Falmouth yet?

I've applied to UCA Canterbury too! How are you doing with UCA?

I have an interview for Farnham in February and one for Canterbury in March. How about you!?

Hi all, I'm applying for fine art too! I've applied to reading, goldsmiths, bath, coventry and northampton. I've heard back from all of my choices about interviews apart from reading (which is my number 1 choice) anyone know how long they generally take to reply?

I've got a conditional offer for UCA Canterbury. I didn't have any interview with them. Good luck with your interview! : )

I haven't had my interview yet but it's scheduled for March 5th. First of all they ask to see an online portfolio of you work, and based on that they'll decide whether they want to interview you or not.

Oh wow well done! When did you apply? I applied quite late on so was a bit worried.

Reading generally reply pretty quickly. I sent off my UCAS just before Christmas and had my interview there yesterday.
Good luck!

I hope Chelsea send out emails soon! Has anyone heard?! I saw on a thread from last year that one person still hadn't heard anything in late March (about whether they got an interview or not) - crazy

I haven't heard anything... Starting to worry but is it just down to the volume of applicants?

Yeahhhh I suppose it must be! I know that they start interviewing at the beginning of March so surely we should hear within the next couple of weeks! Fingers crossed! Is it your top choice?

It's far too soon to start worrying. Until comparatively recently art schools used to have a 24th March application deadline (one or two still do) and a different method of applying which extended well into April. In part this was a recognition of the fact that the majority of applicants do an art foundation course and would have only started to build their portfolio quite late in the process, once they had decided on their chosen pathway. Many of the schools still kind of operate to this timetable a bit, despite now having the earlier deadline. When you consider the fact that pretty much alone of the degree subjects, art applicants all have to be seen, as grades aren't the deciding factor in the selection process, you can see how it is that the process takes ages. I've lost count of the number of times I have posted this fact, but it is always relevant - my son got his offer from ECA on May 7th.

It's one of my top choices, but I haven't done a foundation course so I'm trying not to get my hopes up too much! I have done all 3 art based a-levels... Not sure it's enough though!
What about you?
