RCA 2022 Applicants

Hello! I wanted to see who else is currently working on their applications to the Royal College of Art! I'm applying for the IED program (Information Experience Design) and can't believe we're less than a week away from the deadline. Good luck everyone~

I am! How'd yours go?! They give you any indication as to when you'd hear back?

Hey, me too! It was okay, but 15 minutes was so short! How did yours go? They told me that they’ll get back to me in a couple of weeks!

I know right?! Mine went ok, probably due to the fact that they asked so many long questions in 15 minutes, but we shall see! They said the same thing -- next 2 weeks/early January.

Yeah, I actually couldn't say many of the things that I had prepared to say. Well, let's just hope for the best!
I really hope they will email us by the end of the year.

Hi! Just wanna check if anyone got interview invitation from IED this year? Heard that lots of applicants got their status updated to “unsuccessful” a few days ago and just now my friend told me that someone got interview for IED. It’s so nervous my application status hasn’t changed since the Pebblepad submission!

I only applied for IED as my tutor from BA graduated from there and encouraged me to give it a try.

Dont worry, you will get in hopefully! If your status hasn't changed to unsuccessful and it has for others then it means they are still considering you, i think. Where have you been checking? the portal?

Yes I check it on the application portal provided during stage 1. Also thank you so much for the encouragement and hope you get accepted for the course you are applying this year!

They usually email for interviews and offers, so just keep checking junk or spam. No worries, you too!
