How to Prepare for a Portfolio Review
- Your portfolio should include your best and most recent work, but it can also include works in progress, sketchbooks, and first drafts.
- Before the session, practice explaining how you develop your ideas, articulating where you want to go with those ideas, and sharing the process of arriving at the completed work.
- We encourage you to ask questions and take this opportunity to learn about the process of applying to an art program.
- For virtual reviews, please put all of your images onto a website (if you have one), or into a folder on Google Drive, or some other sharing service. Be prepared to share a direct link to your work with your faculty reviewer.
National Portfolio Days
We will be at National Portfolio Days virtually and in-person this year for undergraduates only. We will attend the Lowell, MA event on October 2nd and the New York City event on October 3rd in-person. Pre-registration is required for both virtual and in-person events.
