Hello there! I have a pretty simillar situation with you. Strictly speacking, my full-time experience does not reach 3 years. Btw, I am also from a design background but I did not recieve the interview invitation. So I believe I do not have possibility to be accepted in this program.
In addition, I am also curious about how they managed this program last year. Did they accept student defer? Or everyone was in Zoom University...What a tough year for everyone...
