Informing your college application journey.
College Visits, make the most of them!
Make sure admissions knows you want to tour the art facilities.......Pick up college newspapers to learn what's important on campus.......Do your research before you visit so you know what questions you want answered.....Take notes and photos right after your visit so you remember.
National Portfolio Day
Attending National Portfolio Day allows high school visual artists to receive invaluable expert critiques of their portfolios before submitting their applications.
RISD: Making your application stand out without the Assignment
RISD looks for students with exceptional technical skills and those that show successful risk taking. RISD loves curious students, you need to show that thirst to understand and problem solve in your portfolio. Your application is more than your artwork and we suggest you pay very close attention to the sequence in which you present your art, the descriptions which accompany each piece, and your personal statement in the Common Application.
