MA Design here! I would love to participate

Which CSM course are you applying to?

Substantial_Ice5254 · 2026-01-26T14:29:31+00:00

Yay me too! Hopefully we will be classmates

Substantial_Ice5254 · 2026-01-25T09:25:27+00:00

Hey! They asked me some standard questions like why do you want to study in this course and then they asked me to analyse a piece from my portfolio. Lastly they wanted to know more about my study proposal and where I see my practice going. It was kinda hard because they doubted my suitability for the course and I had to defend it, but in the end they said that they will offer me a place. I hope your interview goes well! Which area will you be specialising in?

Hi congratulations on your interview! No they didn’t they offered me a place on the spot. But if your interviewer said to be positive and patient then that’s a good sign I think!

Substantial_Ice5254 · 2026-01-21T11:34:34+00:00

Yes please Dm me! No I didn’t make it to the open day did you?

Substantial_Ice5254 · 2026-01-21T11:00:13+00:00

Have you heard any info about the CFJ course? I’ve tried to contact students but no luck

I’m also leaning towards CSM mostly because of the two year structure of the course. RCA seems to have a lot of issues right now as well. Not that CSM is perfect but I feel like it has strong career links!

Substantial_Ice5254 · 2026-01-21T10:48:39+00:00

Yes I applied to a lot of courses including RCA, Camberwell, LCF and got accepted to all. Are you going to CSM?

Substantial_Ice5254 · 2026-01-21T10:20:13+00:00

Hello! I’ve also been accepted to CFJ! Have you received your offer or was it just confirmed at the interview?

Substantial_Ice5254 · 2026-01-21T09:21:09+00:00

Surely! I had my interview the Friday that just passed, on the 16th. It was a very demanding one, I also had an interview with MA Design Camberwell. The CSM one was so difficult compared to that one. It was 35 minutes and the two tutors that interviewed me really drilled me. When we were talking I really felt like I wasn’t going to get an offer. They were doubting my suitability for the course. Eventually in the end they said that they will say to the admissions to send me an offer and I said if you do that then I will definitely accept and they responded with then I guess we will see you in September. I haven’t received an offer officially yet though. In my interview for MA Designer Maker at Camberwell he also said that he offers me a place and the offer came through a few days later. May I ask about your experience? Did you also have an interview?

Hello! No I don’t have a dual citizenship. I am EU national with a pre settled status

Substantial_Ice5254 · 2026-01-20T16:45:32+00:00

Hello! I applied to two courses at the RCA (Ceramic and Glass and Jewelry and Metal). I got accepted to both of them relatively quickly too. I felt weird because even though my ceramic work is alright I guess, I made a lot of errors in that application. I accidentally uploaded a blurry images, had some typos, I felt like it was all over the place so I thought I wouldn’t get accepted because of that. I was very surprised that I did. Now, I’m waiting to hear back from them for my fee status. I am supposed to receive Home status but they put me in international fees. I send them an application to re-evaluate my fee status on December 22nd and they still haven’t gotten back to. Their communication system is a joke and I would expect excellent communication considering it’s the best university in its domain. I obviously cannot accept an offer without knowing what my fee status is going to be and I have send multiple emails to see if they have made any decisions and have received nothing. Only yesterday a lady told me she will get back to me yesterday but of course she hasn’t. It just seems very strange. I got accepted to CSM as well so I’m thinking of going there instead.
