Cambridge Architecture - Timelines around the test and portfolio.

Hi,
I am looking to apply to study architecture at Cambridge (Applying now to start in 2026). Can someone please tell me the timelines around the application, short portfolio, Spational reasoning test and interviews?

My understanding is : Submit application by 15th Oct.
If shortlisted,
- They request a short portfolio
- Invite to the test
- Invite to an interview - take the long portfolio to the interview.
