Yeah I would even consider 3D! Have you done your digital folio yet? Have you got a link? I've not heard back yet from them with an upload link but I know it can take a while...

No i haven't yet, I'm doing a foundation degree at the moment and they normally help us to start start putting it together. I haven't heard back either yet but at the open day they did say it can take a while because they have so many applications to look through. Have you done yours?

I didn't get a chance to go to the open day as I made the decision to apply to csm a few days before the deadline haha. How was it? Are the studio spaces big? I've done mine for other unis so I'll just use the images and such from them but this ones different because we can only have 10 images so there will be more pressure to pick the right ones :frown:. I've read that they tell you what to put in though which is helpful

aw no way! It was actually very helpful going to the open day, they are clearly very well facilitated and their spaces were big to be honest but they also said that it's a first come first served basis like you have to get there early on the first day and get the space or somebody else will take it. Which is annoying lol. Oh okay, where else have you applied? I completely agree, like 10 is not a lot at all so it's going to be hard to pick the right images. Yeah i think they will specify certain things such as an example pf written work etc.

Me too! But I think I saw last year on here that they send their interviews out in two batches, so don't give up hope yet

No worries, and I've applied to Slade, Loughborough, Newcastle and Edinburgh. Got an interview at Loughborough and waiting to hear back off the others. You?

Aw cool! I was originally going to apply for Loughborough but decided not to. I applied to Leeds College of Art, Manchester Met, Birmingham School of Art, CSM and Chelsea. I have had interviews for all except the UAL ones 😊
I've applied for Chelsea and got an interview at the end of this month..
I applied to CSM and Chelsea. Got an offer from CSM in the 2D Pathway. Chelsea deferred me to their Foundation because I haven't done one.
