Hey guys,

I'm applying for History of Art for 2026 entry as a Post A-level applicant (I applied last year too, but I decided to take a gap year).

I got A*A*A in History of Art, Politics, Classical Civilisation + A in my EPQ (on the effects of colonisation & globalisation on Aboriginal art).

I've applied to the Courtauld, St Andrews, Edinburgh, UCL and Cambridge (Jesus College), and I've got 2 offers for the Courtauld and UCL so far.

How are everyone's applications going, and where's everyone applying to?
