:/ Do you think few people pick it as a subject or just that not many people come on here?

From college. :smile:

You?

I don't think illustration is a popular subject. On my uni chat there are more people doing psychology than an art subject. I also don't think those that are studying illustration this year have found this site yet. :/

I came from college too. What did you study?

I have to admit, at our college I think there were only twelve of us (out of about one hundred) applying for arts/music based subjects. I was the only one doing illustration.
Well, at least that will probably mean small classes; which is a good thing, for me at least.
We might get a couple of later stumblers. You never know.

Design Tech (Resistant Materials), English Literature, Fine Art as well as Science and food and Nutrition. What about you?

Wow! We've had similar situations then, I was the only one in my class that applied for illustration too. I've just finished studying digital media foundation. That might happen have a few late starters.

Do you know anyone going to the same uni as you?

Huh. That sounds pretty cool, I didn't even know digital media foundation was a thing.

Maybe, maybe not.

I only know one person that's going to the same uni as me, do you?
Yeah there's digital media classes from level 2-foundation :smile:

do you live in Portsmouth or are you moving to halls in Portsmouth?

I've met someone on here but other than her, no.

Ooh, that's cool. :smile:

No, I live about an hour, maybe an hour and a half, away by car so I've applied to move into the halls there - hopefully I'll get a place! :smile:

Do you live near UEL or have you applied for halls or private accomodation?

Cool

fingers crossed that you get a room at the halls 👌🏻
I do live about 45mins away from UEL so there's no need for me to move into halls as I can easily travel to the uni. 🙂
Do you have any social media like Facebook or Instagram? Would be cool to be friends with you especially as your studying illustration too. 👍

Thanks! ^.^

Well, that's pretty handy!

I have Facebook - which I use pretty much only for messenger - but not Instagram. Two ticks and I'll pop you a link via private message.
