I applied Innovation design engineering and took an interview last month. Currently, I'm nervous about the results so I really want to know it as soon as possible.

Hello,
I've read someone mentioning this, but still; when I was waiting for my turn to be interviewed (I was the last of the morning and they were running late so I had to wait a bit) the coordinator that accompanied me told me in between small talks that this year they were indeed planning to take more students than usual in all RCA. She mentioned they were probably going to double up the number of students for humanities. I applied in History of Design so that's the info that I registered in that moment (LOL I was kinda nervous and probably blocked out the other numbers)but I do remember asking her if it was just for my course of for all the RCA courses and she said the latter.

Anyway, my interview went well, I guess. But you can never be sure, the competition is a lot and from so many different backgrounds, is tough to imagine what they would pick in the end. Fingers crossed!!! Can't wait for the end of the month.
Thanks for sharing that! Although I can't decide whether that's good news or it's going to make the rejection have more weight to it! I'd guess that some of us will have heard by the end of this week.

Unofficial offer for History of Design. Course administrator said the academic board is meeting today so I expect lots of people will find out soon. dunno why he told me last night instead of today.

Anyways pretty happy/surprised, especially after my interview :|

Now to see if I can afford it........

I am wondering if you have any clue about the number of students they are planning to take in the sculpture department because it seems like they already have limited space so I am worried if numbers are too high then the space would be really small

Congrats! :smile: I also received an offer from Critical Writing in Art and Design, and I still am not so sure what they really meant by the Academic Approval. We will understand if we receive the formal letters in April.

And then comes the funding...

By the way I'm waiting for the result of my interview for the History of Design programme, although my interview went a bit nervous.
Anybody heard from the Fine Art department..?
