Fine art applicants 2022

Hi. I've applied for 5 fine art degrees straight from a level. These are at oxford (rejected), edinburgh (MA fine art), Glasgow School of Art (painting + printmaking), Newcastle, and Brighton. I'm also applying to foundation courses at Leeds arts uni and Bournemouth. I don't know anyone else who has applied for fine art and there's no official fine art applicants thread this year. Has anyone else applied?

no i’m not, i don’t even know about that. i haven’t submitted my portfolio yet because i’m just going to wait until february as there is no need to submit it any earlier than the deadline lol. i wanna find other fine art applicants this year because i can’t find many at all, i also wish i could see other people’s portfolios as i have no clue how good or bad mine is compared to others lol.

I have applied to BA Fine Art. I am an international student from India. Got conditional offers from Leeds Arts Uni, Northumbria and Falmouth. GOt rejected by UAL and still waiting to hear from Loughborough. Little confused about which one to choose. Any idea how do they rank?
