portfolio interview help!!

I have an interview with UCA for interior design where I have to bring in my portfolio. Does anyone know/have an idea of how this will be conducted?? Will I just be explaining my portfolio to them? What kind of questions/comments could they say?
Hi there, I'm not too sure myself since i'm going in for my interview next week, but i've heard from friends that they ask questions along the lines of explaining the meanings/inspiration behind your work, your development process and such
other than that i wish you luck :smile:

Hi @camyuu

Its pretty standard that they ask you questions about inspiration for you portfolio work. They might ask you how you developed work till you got to the final piece, what medium you like working with, that kind of thing.

This is an old post, but my Uni did an article abut different lecturers and what they are looking for and it might help.

Best of luck with your interview.
