Admission requirements

A prospective student does not need to sit an English exam if they have an IELTS certificate with a score of 6 or above. Foundation Art and Design does not require an IELTS certificate; there is an assumed knowledge of English at Intermediate or Pre-Intermediate level.

You can learn more about the IELTS test here. 

During the interview, the student will be asked a number of questions about their education and professional experience to inform the ultimate decision about their admission to the programme. Be ready to tell us about yourself, about your engagement with design and the projects you are presenting.

When applying for Foundation Art and Design, the student should present their portfolio, which should feature samples of work from the past several years. Try to show us your best and latest works, which fully showcase your creative abilities.
