5 Things to consider before applying for a creative course in the UK
Artway Director, Wendy Pye, explains what you need to do to prepare for and apply to top UK universities such as University of the Arts London, Goldsmiths - University of London, The Royal College of Art, and Glasgow School of Art.
The art and design classes at school, I feel was way too academic. It was for the purpose of getting a certain grade, rather than preparing me for my future university career. It was mostly things like analysing artworks or talking about what other artists have been doing, but not much of what we have to do to apply and not much support preparing a portfolio and information about working in the industry or anything like that

My portfolio was huge. I shouldn't have submitted something so big. So I think to have had advice on what to put in could really help people. It would be good to get a portfolio review before you actually submit the work
