    Hi Everyone,

    I would really like to do this course, however i only got a 2:2 in my degree and the course requires a 2:1. I have a BA in Visual Communication. I got a 1st in my thesis but my studio practice was a 2:2 which dragged my overall degree down.

    It says in the course requirements that with the proper work experience they may wave academic requirements.

    I have a fairly decent portfolio which shows design, programming, mobile game programming, animation, hand lettering etc etc

    Has anyone any advice about what other steps I could take. I unfortunately went through a difficult time during my last year in college with the loss of a family member and some chronic ill health. I really dont want what was one bad year in an otherwise perfect college transcript ruin my chances of continuing my education as it is very important.

    Or is there anyone in the course who can tell me about the interview process etc,what I should and shouldnt have in my portfolio and what specific experience work wise will stand to my application
