The first time around I applied to colleges I only applied to one, I happened to get into my current University. This time around it was a little different, because I applied to Bachelor of Art courses, there is a little more riding on the acceptance, this time around it really mattered. This is more imminent to my future.
The university I am a part of is made of different colleges in London.
Here is a link to my Uni: http: //www.arts.ac.uk/
So, my university offered, for the first time, this year an "Internal Progression scheme," which allows students in foundation years to apply through the University to other Colleges and courses within each University of the Arts London. I applied to the Wimbledon College of Art: Costume Design course and the Costume Interpretation course, as well as applying to the London College of Fashion: Costume for Performance.
The courses I got accepted into are Wimbledon College of Art: Costume Design and London College of Fashion: Costume for Performance.
I didn't really think my work that I was being assessed on was really good quality stuff, I know I can do better. I had such doubt about my choices, I applied to Wimbledon because it's more of a theatre school, which I feel I would thrive in that environment. Although, I kind of ruled out the thought of actually getting accepted to Costume Design at Wimbledon. I just didn't think I was good enough to get in, which is why I applied to the LCF costume course, as a back up to Wimbledon. Thinking that it was better then nothing, but I also applied to the University in Nottingham for Costume Design as well. I still have to go to my interview with them, so I haven't really decided which course yet.
I am just really proud of myself, I got into a college that has hosted students who have won Oscars and ar head designers at Chloe and Marchesa. I really didn't think that I was going to get accepted into this course.
I am leaning toward Wimbledon, but I am not making a firm choice until I have my Nottingham interview. I feel like I will know for sure when that is over.
I am just on a really great high right now, not 1 College but 2. It is a really great way to start my day. I feel like I can do anything, I actually want to make my current project better then it is. I am in the opposite frame of mind then what would be expected. I want to prove that I deserve my place at LCF and Wimbledon.
The possibilities are so exciting!!!! =D
