- If you ever have felt insecure about your portfolio, feel insecure no longer! Also I literally will never stop shaming Lund University for saying that I couldn't prove my English language fluency.
Hi there! I'm applying for the same program this year, I find it really helpful, and thanks for sharing it!
awesome!! I'm really happy to hear that- good luck! If you want to know what it's like studying here, I shared a video from my first studio recently :)
Hi I just found your channel, thank you so much for sharing your work and thoughts. I had my eye on TU Delft since I was in senior high school, after I graduated bachelor's degree 7 months ago, my old dream to study there resurfaced, but unfortunately I don't have any great achievements in architecture field during my study. I plan to prepare for about 2 years to gather achievements and experiences to enhance my resume and portfolio through my work and a potential international research paper publication from my thesis. And I'm also planning to apply for a scholarship from my country. Do you think it's worth the time and energy for me to do that? Do you think there's a possibility as long as I work hard on it?
Also, I'm curious to know what do you mean when you said that they probably didn't admit your application because of your degree? I was in a vocational school for 3 years and did an extension program at a university in my country Indonesia for another 2 years, so 5 years of architecture school in total, and I graduated with B. Arch degree. Does TU Delft judge the applicants from their bachelor's university? or do they not pay attention that much to your school background as long as it's a university that's properly accredited in the country and as long as your resume and portfolio in architecture field is qualified enough for them? I just want to make sure that I'm not wasting my time on preparing to apply to a university that probably won't even accept my degree or university in the first place.
I'd be very thankful if you can reply to this but I also understand it you can't, I'm looking forward for you next contents :)
If you just have the time to look for the university I studied at it's called Muhammadiyah University of Surakarta.
Thank you so much for this video, really helpful :)
I'm really happy to hear that!
Hey. Congratulations on having been accepted, and thanks for showing us your portfolio; you're right, there aren't any of Delft's portfolios online so this helps a lot. I'm also applying for the program but in the Building Technology Track.
Good luck!!
@@KathrynLarsen thanks!!
I get that you wouldn't be able to offer advice... especially since I've already sent the application lol... I'm just curious if you could skim over my portfolio and share a few thoughts
@@tahirzahidishrat1324 sure :) send it to kathrynelizabethlarsen@gmail.com ! :)
Hey! Glad to know you got in. I'm trying to apply for the same course this year and was wondering if we could connect? It would be helpful if you could give any portfolio review tips 🙈
I'm sure your portfolio is amazing! I'm not an admissions person so I'm not sure I'm qualified to give review tips. My only advice is to absolutely make sure that you portfolio conforms to the specifications they list on their website- I've seen people of all backgrounds get into this school as long as they follow that and have 1 project detailed to a construction level.
Hi! Thanks for the video, I find it really useful! Can I ask you if it is better to send the portfolio much before the deadline or if it doesn't matter? How much time before did you send yours to tu delft? Thank you
I think it only matters if you're applying for a scholarship (non-EU). Otherwise it doesn't matter. I sent mine 2 hours before the deadline closed.
Thank you and this is helpful
Thank you for watching! Happy it could help!
Thanks for making this video. It’s really helpful. May I ask: Is your Professional Bechelor’s degree different from Bachelor degree( BA) as I’ve seen in the email from D.U sent you they said your Danish Prof.BA wasn’t accepted. I have a B.A in architecture from Vietnam, is it acceptable?
Yes, this is accepted! It's due to the degree hierarchy system in Denmark and the Netherlands and where you obtain your degree from. A professional BA is not seen the same as a BA, even if they are both bachelor degrees.
@@KathrynLarsen thanks for responding!
@@khoaph.m no problem 😊
Thank you, i hope i can get into TU delft architecture, I'm still in senior high school.
Good luck!
Thanks a lot for making this video. I am currently studying architecture at university, and I am really want to apply Master in Architecture at TU Delft. I am really worried because my degree I will receive when I graduate from my university is Bachelor of Art. Although admission to Master program in TU Delft in Architecture needs to have Bachelor of Science, I would like to ask are there any chances for me?.
Hi Thanh! What country are you getting your degree in? For many countries, they just ask for a 4-year bachelor degree or a university bachelor degree. I think it will be ok, if you are getting a BA at a university level. Vocational schools are the ones they do not accept, and my undergraduate degree was considered a vocational education.
I will get my degree from Anhalt University in Germany. One more time, I am appreciated a lot for your information and reply :))
@@thanhnguyenduc8780 Hi! Then yes, I can confirm you should be ok. All they require from Germany is: An academic bachelor's degree with a cumulative grade point average (CGPA) of 2.5 or better. Best of luck!
Is it worth applying to TUDelft straight out of undergrad? Or do most people there for Master’s have a few years of Professional experience under their belt already?
It is worth it! Most of the Dutch students have little to no work experience apart from maybe one 6 month internship. As someone who did work a lot, sometimes I needed to unlearn the things I learned through work and give myself permission to play.
@@KathrynLarsen thank you so much for the advice!
@@lucaskamal8094 anytime- wishing you the best of luck!
Hey, I appreciate this so much . Any advice you can give me for the application of scholarship for my masters , I am from Ethiopia. Thanks:))
yes! get everything organized far in advance, and apply early! that deadline creeps up much faster than you expect, and you can't apply for scholarships after sending in your application. I wish I had been more organized with my application.
@@KathrynLarsen Thanks for the replay, I havent seen any link where I can apply for scholarship. Is it possible to get scholarship?
@@nebiyatyirga2632 you apply as a part of your application- there is a part of it thst is scholarship specific!
D: okkkkkk now I know how my portfolio is supposed to look oH GoD
That email is legit my worst nightmare. I'm applying to this program with a degree in Interior Design from Canada and I added construction details on 4 of 5 projects to "compensate" for my non arch background. I'm curious if there are non arch students in your class?... or am I wasting my time lol
Only dutch speaking ones that did the bridging program. I would consider applying to Eindhoven design school because they accept people from all disciplines. You won't be an architect but you can be a designer that works with architecture with that degree.
awsome! just to be clear this is for bachelor's or master's?
Masters!!!
@@KathrynLarsen :))
Hi did you get in? I am applying this year
yes, I got in with this portfolio, and I'm doing my thesis this year at the Explore Lab!
@@KathrynLarsen wowowww did you get in with masters??
@@asap3089 Yeah I got into the masters degree program :)
@@KathrynLarsen wow. TU Delft is actually my dream school for Msc and because of that, I am currently working a firm in the netherlands as an intern to know more about the uni. I recently graduated from bsc architecture in the uk and working on my portfolio to apply there haha. I know this sounds ridiculous but since it is always the best to ask someone in the course, could you possibly review my portfolio and maybe share some tips? Feel free if you cannot haha but ya I was brave enough to follow you on instagram just now haha.
@@asap3089 yeah of course 🙂 happy to look it over !
