Will there be an interview?
We have now simplified the process for further education applicants and no longer hold in-person interviews. You will however, still be required to provide a portfolio.
Providing a portfolio
Once we receive your course application, we will contact you and ask you to upload your portfolio digitally. This will then be reviewed by a course lecturer.
