Portfolio
See Portfolio Guide Page

Interview
The interview day is an opportunity to meet an academic tutor, talk to current students in the various courses and explore the faculty.
An Interview will last between 15-20 minutes and it is essential that you bring a portfolio of your work.

During the interview we will ask you to explain your work its process and the ideas. It is an informal meeting to discuss your work and your interests.
We are interested in the individual applicant and what inspires them to apply to our courses.
The interview day will include a general introduction of the course, a tour around Spring House and the opportunity to meet students in the current courses.

During the interview, the lecturer will evaluate your creativity, your commitment, knowledge and your technical skills. Whilst looking at your work we will ask you about;
· Your ideas, and there importance to you.
· Its background and context.
· Your estimation of its strengths and weaknesses.
· Your methods and procedures.

Your ability to discuss your portfolio is as crucial as the work itself. After the interview you will not be told the decision. The admissions office will inform you of the outcome.

Interview Days
A date will be allocated to you by Admissions and you will be expected to inform them that you are able to attend. Failure to attend your interview will result in you being withdrawn as an applicant. We will only change your interview date in exceptional circumstances.
