Prospective candidates in the UK are encouraged, if possible, to attend one of our three annual Open Days. For candidates travelling from overseas, we will, with notice, try to schedule an appointment to visit the Ruskin. However, please note that we are a small and busy team, and may not have the capacity to make such arrangements.
We regret that we cannot accommodate any visits which have not been agreed in advance.
If you are unable to visit in person, please see the Study section for a video tour of our Bullingdon Road building, and Resources at the Ruskin for a description of our facilities, as well as the BFA pages for information about the programme and how to apply.
