International students still interview. You're supposed to let them know if you want to interview in your country or the U.K.

It was short and sweet in my opinion :smile: the interviewer I had was really nice but because of time restraints (just over 20minutes) , he could only flick through my sketchbooks and ask me a few questions about the portfolio and the task, and also the general why architecture/bartlett etc. I felt comfortable talking to him tho, especially with a portfolio that you know very well bc it's your own work :smile: I would expect the Cambridge one to be much more grilling and intense tho :colonhash:
Yes, so par for the course there. Cambridge will be tougher. You'll have to be able to defend any bold statements you make in the essay and I suspect they'll be less outwardly "friendly". Do you have an idea of your 1, 2, 3 yet?

What was the essay like? for instants was it based on a topic like the environment/sustainability or was it more history??? 🤔

submitted my portfolio on the 30th and now kent want more observational sketches ************Ssnskl
I don't think I should say much about the essay question as it might be being used in forthcoming assessments, but I wouldn't expect it to be about history...

Does anybody have an offer from Nottingham? And if you do, how long after submitting your portfolio did you get the offer? I send off my portfolio last week and I'm wondering when I will find out!

Yes I think Cambridge will be my first if I have an offer, Bath will be second, and Edinburgh will be third/insurance :smile: what about your daughter?

Got an offer from Manchester today, took about 2 weeks from the day I submitted my digital portfolio to get it.
Anyone got an offer from Sheffield?

The same (but with Cardiff as 3rd). The UCL application seems a bit pointless, but I think she'd like to get an offer there just to show that she could! Edinburgh there just to fill the space now.
