Architecture 2016 Entry Applications and Offers

Just got declined from UCL today after my interview but it's all good Cardiff's got me. So anyone here picking Cardiff as their firm choice?

Sorry to hear that. I had my interview on the 9th Feb and still haven't heard. Anyone else still in the same boat??

Hi guys

I have really enjoyed nosing at all your portfolios. It seems like one of the things applicants struggle with (there isn't a lot of great advice in schools/sixth forms).

I'm thinking of putting together a new sticky thread for the Architecture and the Built Environment forum pulling together all your recommendations in this thread about which portfolio sites are best and wondered if any of you would be willing to have your portfolios linked there with the universities you applied and whether you got interviewed/offered.

There's questions here every year about what a good portfolio looks like and there's a real variety in this thread that could help future applicants.

I was thinking of doing this in a month or so when most offers are in - or even better if one of you wants to make the thread and give me a shout I'll sticky it

Don't often share my work but think it's time for a digital portfolio https://hyarchi.carbonmade.com , hope this helps

I have recently received an email from MSA saying "Your application was amongst the very best we have received and therefore we would like to invite you to attend a Taster Afternoon on Tuesday 8th March from 12.45pm to 4pm."
I guess they sent quite a lot of these, but I was curious whether anyone had any idea what it actually is. Some sort of Open Day?
MSA is my last choice, I do not really like it, but I still take it into consideration; therefore, please PM me if you know anything.

https://georgiagreen.carbonmade.com/ this is mine. i'm struggling with retaining my modesty whilst wanting to join in with the portfolio reviews, so if anyone wants to see the full porfolio (which could be inspo if anyone is wanting to see a successful ucl porfolio still for late interviews) then don't hesitate to pm.

Did you get an offer?! Love your task so much! Great idea for it!.. I'm really wondering how on earth I got an interview now, considering my task was so simple..
- I especially like your head tilting instructions

i did, no i like your task! imo your task shows precision and space ect. sometimes simplicity is a good thing, like just being senstive and analytical of the space around you. and yeah, i put it together really quickly so i couldn't be bothered to rotate haha

Awesome! Congratulations!! I may see you in September then!!
