Fine Art Applicants and Universities 2014!!

Yeah it is :/ I feel totally unprepared, i came off my bike on sunday and have been in bed since. But my boyfriend is taking me and carrying my portfolio, which is nice of him. Just have to wing it and hope they're not too cruel! What will be will be!

Ahhhh I have a Goldsmiths interview tomorrow! Does anyone know what questions they ask? Or what kind of work they're interested in? My work is here www.roisincreanart.tumblr.com

Oh no, hope you weren't too badly injured. At least you have your boyfriend for support. (both moral and physical)
Good luck.



Good luck! Most peoples interview experiences have been very different so it's hard to say what questions they will ask you. If you go back through the last few pages of this thread you can see some of the questions they asked people during last weeks interviews.
Goldsmiths are known for conceptual work, so I think your work would fit in.

Is anybody else still waiting to hear back from the Slade?

I think mmarian is still waiting. I'm sure you're not the only one. Good luck!

I was thinking about phoning them too, but they'll probably just tell us that they have sent out all responses to ucas. Not sure, may be worth a shot but might just have to wait a little longer! They could respond tomorrow. Are you on foundation?

I am still waiting! It's driving me mad. I might phone them tomorrow...

sorry about your bike accident

all the best of luck.. let us know how it went

ah thank you, it's fine actually, it was just a shock. Some forced rest has been good too.

The student didn't say much at all, one tutor loved everything and the other tore everything to shreds, so impossible to say how it went really!

Wow how do you know she loved it all? Mine were both really impartial - just questioned everything! :/

I've never had any really positive comments in an interview, like " wow that's great" or " how interesting"

They just acknowledged and questioned everything! Maybe this is a bad sign!? As it always happened in 6 fine art interviews I've done - I thought it was normal! :/

Ah, typical of art interviews... but i'm sure u did well.

Fingers crossed.
do u know when will they send u their decision?

'Do you not think that if your work was in a building site that people would step over it thinking it was a pile of ****?'
Interesting interview to say the least! The student was nice and didn't say a lot, one of the tutors loved everything, and the other one absolutely slated everything. At least they were sympathetic about my injuries! Said they'd take two weeks to let me know their decisions, which is a goldsmiths two weeks so probably three or four.

Was that a question they asked you? What a strange thing to say haha :') at least the interview went well for you and it seems it went well. The student I had in my joint honours was rather quiet and in the single honours she seemed impressed with my explanations so I hopefully have her fighting in my corner haha but the tutors were really nice as well.

I hope they don't take that long haha I can't stand the lengthy waits and we've got student finance and accommodation stuff to sort! But well done

I'm waiting for Goldsmiths, guessing it will be next week I hear? Quiet interview, here is my online portfolio (a lot are works in progress that I finished in time for the interview and I took other work as well) https://www.flickr.com/photos/liamdunneart/
