My UCAS has even submitted to Chelsea and LCC for Graphic Communication Design and Graphic Media & Design. So far, only Chelsea have asked me for a portfolio, the deadline for which is in February. They ask for evidence of written work which I’m still confused about 🤷*♀️

have you hard back from the others?

I submitted my UCAS on the 19th December and I got a portfolio request on the 21st December - but I have people on my course too that needed to do immigration status checks and they take up to two weeks and then they send the portfolio request. I also have an email that says don't ask them about it because they put your application on hold until they resolve the query you put in

Oh okay that makes sense. I had to update my immigration status a few days back and haven’t heard from them since

It was really strange actually. I submitted my portfolio on the 17th of November and never heard anything. I then logged onto my applicant portal the day before I got my offer, so a couple days ago, and noticed I was asked to submit evidence of my grades, because I’ve already done my a levels. And so it seems as soon as I submitted those the next day I got an offer. But I find it odd that I was never emailed asking to submit anything, I could’ve waited 2 months for nothing. So If you already have your grades like me I would recommend checking the portal for anything like that!
