Hello all!

Wondering if anyone has done (or knows anyone who has done) the Master's Degree in Photography at Aalto. Thinking seriously about applying myself.

Better brush up your portfolio. This year they accepted 4 to do masters. Out of 72. So one does not just waltz in there. Theree of them has their names shown in the list, so you could maybe contact them directly to ask questions? http://studies.aalto.fi/fi/admissions/a ... 2_arts.pdf

Edit. As usual, most of Finns go straight from Bachelor's to Master's (and you don't have to apply anything in between), so that might skew the numbers somewhat, but in Bachelor's the numbers were more staggering: 9 out of 313 got accepted.

ouch. but i think photography is more about mastering the skills than having a degree, or at least that's what all big photographers are saying :-)
