MetStudios representatives
If you wish to get more support locally, you can contact one of our trusted representatives/agents* who will assist throughout your application, free of charge.
If your country is not listed in our directory, please contact our admissions team via chat or email, or let us know if you would like to arrange a call. We will be happy to assist you.
*Undergraduate applicants applying with the support of an agency must include their agent’s company name in the ‘Nominated Name’ field on the UCAS form. Without this information, we are unable to correspond with the agency regarding the application.
Interviews and portfolios
If you can’t visit us in person, you can complete your interview or portfolio review online or submit a recorded demo.
If you live abroad and are not able to travel, there is may be an option for some courses to complete the interview/portfolio review online via a zoom video call with one of our tutors. You will be able to ask them questions that you might have and get direct feedback from the tutor.
Portfolio Submission:
This is a submission of your work to be reviewed and feedback on the outcome shared by Admissions once the tutors have reviewed it. You would not speak directly with the tutor/ assessor and are usually given a timeframe to submit your work by.
The portfolio submission process is simple, and you will be satisfying the same requirements as you would for an in-person session. When requested, you just send your portfolio submission to us within a set deadline and a MetStudios assessor will mark it, give their recommendation and our Admissions Team will provide feedback via email. We will endeavour to communicate the outcome and any feedback within one week.
Please check our Course Interview Guides here. Our course Interview guides will help you prepare for your in-person interview/ portfolio review or Zoom interview (if applicable). It is important that you read each section to give yourself the best chance of obtaining a recommendation for your chosen course. We will send out the relevant guide to you when we invite you for your interview/portfolio submission.
