Portfolio Days

Portfolio Days

Our Portfolio Days equip students with valuable information and advice on portfolio preparation and applying to AUB.

Students will also hear from current AUB students about their experiences of applying to university.

Who are Portfolio Days suitable for?

The Portfolio Days are ideal for students seeking support in developing their portfolios for Undergraduate or Foundation level applications. All attendees should be planning to apply to university within the next two years – this typically includes students in Year 12, Year 13 in sixth form, and all levels at college in the UK.

Please note, these events are aimed at students applying to courses that require a portfolio as part of the application process. Therefore, it isn't suitable for our performance-based courses. For more information on our courses and portfolio requirements, head to our Portfolio Guidelines page.

What to expect

This webinar-style event is open to all students interested in studying a creative undergraduate degree or the Foundation Diploma in Art, Design and Media.

During the event, you'll receive expert advice on creating a successful portfolio application. There'll be two separate panel sessions – one with academics and another with current students – where they'll share their insights. You can use the live chat function to ask questions, which will be answered in real time by our academic and student panels.

We’ll also have representatives from admissions and international teams joining the academic panel to answer any queries.

After the event, you’ll receive an email with a directory of useful links to help guide you through the application process, along with contact details in case you need further assistance.

Registered attendees will receive the webinar link a few hours before the event starts. If you don't see it in your inbox one hour before the event, please check your spam folder or reach out to us at schools@aub.ac.uk.
