Hello! Has everyone paid their deposit here? Did you face any issues with WorldPay or your payment not being accepted? I have tried several times to pay my deposit and I talked to my bank as well but there is no issue from their end, yet my payment keeps getting declined. Please let me know if anything worked for you in this regard! Have contacted RCA as well but would like to solve this asap

Yeah I did, my card got declined earlier because international payments were not enabled. I figured it out with the help of my bank. Maybe try checking that. What error does it say exactly?

I’m paying with my uncle’s uk bank card even though I’m an international student myself. Have tried an Amex card and a uk bank card. The message says ‘Declined. Sorry, this transaction has been declined by your card issuer. No other information was passed to WorldPay as part of your confidentiality agreement with your card issuer. You may wish to try another card.’ So, in summary, I have tried two cards - but getting the same message

Yeah I got the same message. But after enabling the international transfer it worked.

I will double check that and everything else - thank you for your help!

So I made the payment through WorldPay, it miraculously worked. My portal status has also been updated accordingly. At the same time, RCA also sent me their bank transfer details in case the portal payment didn’t still work. So relieved!

Hi there!

Starting a thread for anyone applying for Royal College of Art this year. I'm applying to MA Painting in round 1 (deadline next week).

Good luck everyone!

Hello! I applied for MA Visual communication (Round 2). Is there any chance we hear from them before deadline?

Did anyone go the open day today? If so, what were your thoughts? 🙂

Hi everyone! I just submitted my application to Design Futures (Round 2).

I don't know what happened but in my RCA admission portal under "admission record" I have two records, both for Design Futures and both with the status "application submitted" even though I had and submitted only one portfolio on pebblepad. I already sent an email to rcs support but I'm pretty nervous about the chance of being rejected based on the double application (even though it wasn't my fault). Anyone with the same issue?? 😩

I didn't encounter anything like that but I don't think you should worry too much. The rca support, in my experience, is pretty responsive and I'm pretty sure that double-application line is to prevent people from reapplying in multiple rounds for the same start date

Contact RCA support. Highlight your issues to them. They are very responsive. Btw, by second time did you mean second time this intake or you applied last year? You still have 7 full days before the application deadline, so reach out to them asap.
