It seems their admin coordination is dreadful so I wouldn't worry if you haven't had emails for interviews yet (also don't be afraid to email the departments and ask for rough time estimates, all the admin people I've dealt with so far have been very friendly and open!)
Hey. I had sent an Email to admission center of RCA and here is the reply:
The date on the website is correct but due to the high volume of applications received some programmes were unable to send out the results by the published date 12.02.16, hence the delay in some applicants receiving their results. All applicants will be notified of the outcome of their application via email please be patient you will be given the result of your application in due course.

So nothing we can do except keep waiting and stay calm. Anyway goodluck everyone

Awesome, I was about to send an email myself. Thanks for posting their response!
I'm surprised there isn't a way to check your application status online.

Hi everyone,I also got the invitation for the interview MA Visual Communication (Illustration pathway)on the 3 March!
I'm wondering whether to go in person or interview through skype..
They asked to bring artworks;therefore,I'd better fly to London or I'm afraid that showing works through the screen is a little bit weird and unreal...
How about you guys who don't actually live in the UK?(I'm from Taiwan,one of the Eastern country)

Maybe take a photo of them and share it with them during Skype? Is that normal?

You could also make an online portfolio and walk them through browsing it while you're also browsing it? I don't know if that's feasible for them, but it is an option. Regardless, interviewing in person is probably the best option if you're able to.

Thanks for you guys' advice.
I think I will buy a cheaper flight ticket to london because the face to face interaction would be much better,leveling up the rate of successful interview~~

In my experience, Skype is better if you're really nervous. Also flying from Taiwan must be hugely expensive just for an interview. They do Skype interviews all the time with overseas candidates so it certainly won't bias them against you.
Is anybody else still waiting to hear from them?
