The ONLY Advice You Need To Get Into Central Saint Martins (UAL)

[@cdorberlee]

I think CSM is okay, it helps you to get into a good job. I know alot of people from my class year who ended up in top design buisness as well as opened up their own company. It is mostly good at helping you with concept generation.

I’m at Saint Martins and you were spot on, new subscriber 🤭✨

[@spitfyre8688]

I just got in a few days ago for MA Industrial Design, realistically you just need to be well rounded. The guy I talked to said he was looking for people from all different kinds of walks of life, Philosophy Majors, Economists, and they're right now trying to focus on the soft studio skills rather than hard skills. A single beautiful sketch or render won't get you in, a range of different things would though. Didn't even really realize how prestigious the program was until I got in either...

[@zacjohnsonf]

Hey, how long after your interview did you get your offer? I'm still waiting for my outcome and did the interview on the 2nd of May. Also, do you know what CAD software they prefer there, or does it not matter?

[@justforview123]

To make it clear, none of the actors you showed in the opening clip (Pierce Brosnan and Tom Hardy) went to CSM nor are any of the actors who CSM claim as their alumni actually CSM alumni. They are Drama Centre London alumni - a drama school who partnered with CSM in the early 2000s who CSM have now systemically dismantled and absorbed into their own programmes, fully distorting the name and legacy of Drama Centre London in a bid to enhance their own prestige as an “Arts” university.

[@ArnauRos]

Absolutely, you’re right. However in a way I still do consider the Drama Centre London school to be a part of CSM because we’re in the same building. I have conversations with them and we share meals and moments together. Regardless of the name of the school, if you’re surrounded by a group of people who are in the same building as you I think that counts.

[@justforview123]

@@ArnauRos You’re in the same building now. The relationship between DCL and CSM is still quite fresh in terms of lifespan and even now CSM has decided to remove the name of DCL and rebrand the school as a CSM acting course with very little consideration of the ethos or teaching of DCL that they do often quote as their own. The vast majority of actors who trained “at CSM”/UAL didn’t step foot in the building. Edit: And don’t get me wrong, I’m not suggesting that the students are in any way apart of the problem. Conversations should be had across course etc. But the institution itself is greedy and destructive when it comes to the arts. They should not be regarded in anyway as friends of Drama Centre London nor should DCL alumni be considered theirs.

[@cdorberlee]

The teachers who teach you are already those who own company and is out there doing design jobs, compare to other university. So thats why you do get more chance landing in a design job at CSM.

[@cdorberlee]

The teacher there said he only had 3 min, when I wanted to ask him a question. I could had been one of those international student who paid £25,000 for 1 year course, just for him to only give me 3 min. it was really bad.

[@아시아프린세스]

hello, thanks for great informative video. i just want to ask a few questions: 1. How did you come up with these ideas, where did you take inspiration from? 2. what we need in a good portfolio? 3. can i prepare portfolios in 3 months for foundation programs, what are your recommendations for applying foundation programs? 4. Can we also show them our works that we did in our sketchbooks? should i go over the requirements when it comes to number of portfolios? should i submit as much as i want if they are so beautiful? Thanks in advance...

[@ArnauRos]

[@kerimberdi4206]

@@ArnauRos thanks a bunch for coming up and responding, i really appreciate that, my new questions are: 1.should i show links to pinterest as the source of inspiration or what should i do since i did not get any inspiration from books or gallery visits, but from outside experiences and the world around me? 2. do we have to show research with annotation and inspirations in every work and designs we make, can we just show them in some ones and not in others, also, did you show the inspiration and research on your product design portfolio, it it ok not to show them in product design work?

Hey there Vidhi, I haven't done anything close to the BA Culture Criticism and Curation course. The one thing I do know about it is that it is a super small selection of students that get to be a part of the course. That being said, pretty much all courses in CSM are super small selection compared to other uni's. Hope this helped!

[@kachow8528]

For CSM depending on the course you need a Grade 4 in at least 3 subjects. But try and do the best you can in you GCSE’s so you can get in to a hood sixth form or college. Look at the facilities of the college and sixth forms art department and ask students about the support system and how good it is.
