International Intensive Foundation: Art & Design: Entry requirements

You need a comprehensive portfolio of relevant artwork confirming your suitability for this practice-based course:

All candidates are required to submit work by CD-ROM, or upload their work to a Flickr at the time of application.

This portfolio should consist of a maximum of 25 pieces of work and six to 10 sketchbook or research pages. Files should be organised into a presentation or slideshow format using PowerPoint or PDF to ensure cross-platform compatibility (PC or MAC).

Students should be able to confirm their choice of pathway at the time of application and present a folder of work on CD that demonstrates evidence and commitment to their chosen pathway.

We will conduct personal telephone interviews for successful candidates during February, March and April of the year of entry.

Acceptance onto the International Intensive Foundation: Art & Design course will guarantee entry to a BA(Hons) course at Kingston University providing that academic and language targets are met. See our general information document (PDF) for more information.

All non-UK applicants must meet our English language requirements. For this course it is Academic IELTS of 6.0 overall with special conditions in all elements. Please make sure you read our full guidance about English language requirements, which includes details of other qualifications we'll consider.

Applicants who do not meet the English language requirements may be eligible to join our International Intensive Foundation: Art & Design with English.
