really? it got selected in because i didnt think they told or notified anyone till after september /october ... i dont even think there marked yet because my cousins work got selected last year but that was becasue she designed a dress under design and technology not for textiles ...

hey people,
i applied for UTS, but i know its soo hard to get into so i opted out for EAST Sydney Tafe, but well.. i didnt get a chance to hand anything in. But my careers advisor says that I should ask if they accept waiting list wannabe's like me. :mad1:
But do you people think they would? Or is this course really hard to get into/placements?

But yeah. If not... i have also opted to try in Melbourne. Hopefully I can get a place. I just need to get really motivated!...

I am wondering what prior experience you all have with design n sewing etc. I haven't made clothing garments since i was a little kid going to school holiday workshops lol but i have done a lot in jewellery design over the years (which isnt really that related but hey). i have UTS fashion n design as my first preference but i am thinking i should take a year off to get some basic skills happening before i commence uni. what do you think? I got the uai for it so can i defer too?

lol since you asked.. Don't get freaked out.

it'ss 90.15 for Bachelor of Design in Fashion Design @ UTS
98.75 for Bachelor of Design in Fashion Design/International Studies @ UTS

UTS Design degrees are extremely popular and hard to get into :(

Has anyone thought about the Whitehouse Institute of Design, or knows anyone who goes there? I'm really interested in going there next year and I wanted people's opinion about it, also, does anyone know if it's hard to get into?

hayy guys !

yeh i'm plannin to apply 4 the fashion & textiles course at UTS .. its meant to be the BEST uni course 4 fashion design .. :) aw alyse thats suckyy u hav 2 travel so far 2 go to uni .. i have cousins in maitland, newcastle & one plans 2 attend a uni in syd & is thinkin bout moving down sooo if ur wondering, thats probably a good option! ;-) but theres a whole lotta drama that comes with that aye? sooo hmmm lol in that case mayb u should disregard wat i jus sed..!

anywayyy i wanna go 2 UTS, have 4 ages .. the UAI is soooo DAMN high though .. it seems unrealistic 2 think i'll get it .. but i'm REALLY hoping i do .. my plan B is 2 apply at east syd tafe.. i hear its betta in some respects..

does anybody know what is better? like what gives u a better chance at being a successful fashion designer.. ive been told that the tafe is wayy better coz its more hands-on & that particular one is hard 2 get into.. but part of me says UNI is the wayy.. its a degree ra ra ra.. but its 4yrs i think tafe is only 3yrs...
ARGHH choices ! lol .. wat u guys rekon ??
