Portfolio and interview workshops
Working sessions on the two parts nobody prepares for. A portfolio built to the brief the course sets, and an interview rehearsed until the answers are yours rather than written down.
No dates in the diary yet
Open days, fairs and webinars go up here the day the dates are set. Ask an adviser what is coming.
What else we run
The same calendar, seen from the other three doors. Each one answers a different question, and none of them asks you to be applying through us.
-
Campus visits
A guided day on a campus with the department you are applying to. The labs and studios the course actually uses, an hour with somebody who teaches on it, and lunch where the students eat rather than where the tour ends.
1 date -
Open day
An admissions director in a room, taking questions for an hour. What the entry requirement means in practice, what a strong application looks like this year, and which part of your file they read first.
3 dates -
Higher education forums
A speaker from a department and an hour of questions. What a degree in the subject is like from the inside, where the last three years of its graduates went, and what has changed about it recently.
