You're invited to join us in Madrid to meet the world's number 1 art and design university!
Studying at the Royal College of Art places you in London: a city internationally renowned for its creativity, culture and diversity - the perfect place to develop your creative career in. What do prospective students need to know about living and studying in the UK?
You’re invited to meet Joseph Pochodzaj (Senior Tutor and Admissions Tutor, Visual Communication MA) in Madrid for an in-person conversation about studying at the RCA.
What to expect
Monday 20 October 2025, 12-2pm
12-1pm - First drop-in session
1-2pm - Second drop-in session
Reserve a place in one of our 1 hour portfolio review sessions. During these time blocks you will get one-to-one advice from Joseph Pochodzaj (Senior Tutor and Admissions Tutor, Visual Communication MA) about your portfolio and application to the RCA.
Please only book 1 session per person to allow other the opportunity. If we see you have booked two sessions then we may cancel the latest booking in order to free up the space.
Who is this event for
- Those interested in postgraduate study at the Royal College of Art
- Current RCA applicants and offer-holders
- Friends and family are also welcome to join, though they do not need a ticket
You don't have to specialise in any discipline to attend this event: we welcome guests planning to apply to all subject areas.
Due to the postgraduate nature of RCA study, all attendees must be over 18.
How to join
The event is free to attend, but please note that places are limited. Pre-booking is essential to guarantee your spot.
I'm thinking of applying to the RCA - can I have an informal portfolio chat?
Yes! We're delighted you're thinking of starting your RCA journey. Please book a portfolio appointment during the registration process and bring a digital version to yourself.
You are welcome to bring and show your work but can also attend to just have a chat about the Royal College of Art and ask questions.
