FAQ 10: Students, Parents, Public

How do I apply for admission to an art and design school?

Applications for admission to art and design schools can only be made directly with the institution. Typically, a potential student will need to fill out an application form providing information such as high school course work taken, grades achieved, extracurricular activity involvement, etc. In addition, art and design institutions normally wish to see a prospective student's portfolio.

Students are encouraged to speak directly with admission counselors and art and design unit representatives in order to ascertain all information needed to complete an institution's application process.
