ENTRY REQUIREMENTS

YOUR INTERVIEW & PORTFOLIO ADVICE

Due to the creative nature of our programmes, we treat all applications on their own merit and welcome anyone who has the ability and aspirations to achieve at higher education. Applicants have the opportunity to demonstrate their potential to us by showing their portfolio at an interview.

After we receive your UCAS form, an interview will be arranged, which enables you to see the outstanding facilities, meet our staff and current students, and view the latest work.

It provides us with an opportunity to discuss your portfolio, find out more about you and establish the best degree route for you.

As a guide applicants are typically required to have between 96-112 UCAS Tariff points, primarily from Level 3 qualifications such as but not limited to A-Levels, UAL Diploma, BTEC diplomas or a Foundation Diploma in Art & Design.

If you are predicted points below the stipulated range, or if you have any other qualifications or professional experience, please get in touch as we still may be able to consider you.

It is expected that all applicants will also have a Level Two qualification (or equivalent) in literacy.

For mature applicants (i.e. 21+ years), emphasis will be placed on the portfolio review and interview session, which remains an important part of the selection procedure.

INTERVIEW PREPARATION This is your opportunity to evidence your visual and creative ability in the form of a portfolio of work. To help you prepare for this, we send all applicants a useful guide with the interview confirmation letter. Your interview with us is intended to be relaxed and informal. You will be asked general questions regarding your application to us, some questions about yourself, your inspirations and aspirations. This may include information about artists or designers that you admire, and what it is about their work that inspires you.

PORTFOLIO ADVICE A portfolio is individual to every student. Everyone will have their own individual styles and will have produced work in different ways, which we actively encourage. Your portfolio should be a visual representation of your creative identity and should include the following: 1. Development of ideas and creative thinking i.e. sketchbook work, drawings, annotations, photography
