How to get into art college
How I did it: -Kept all of my art throughout high school.
-Researched potential colleges to weigh my options.
-Went to a National Portfolio Day event to get feedback from colleges.
-Visited my top choices.
-Put together a resume of awards and accomplishments.
-Transfered my portfolio to a CD to allow for easier mailing.
-Kept track of deadlines.
Lessons & tips: -START YOUR PORTFOLIO NOW. The more thoroughly prepaired your portfolio is, the better. And the less scrambling you'll have to do at the end.
-Keep track of each schools deadline.
-Understand what the school of your choice is looking for in a portfolio.
Resources: -Enlist the help of art teachers and fellow high school art students. Do it.

I wish i get into Moore college of art and design or savannah!!! All i want to do is art and no other colleges seem good enough for me God I HOPE!!! Ill probably will find out by jan if i got in but I need a scholarship to accept it!!! Argh!!!!
knowing that i will be going to a good uni art one or not so i dont really care for this goal anymore
not so much giving up, more losing interest rapidly.
eddievonteese I wish I had more vacation, but 2 months is more than most get...
If you’re planning on attending art school make sure you read the graphic novel Art School Confidential and pay special attention to when they’re introducing the types of people that go there.
I suppose you could always watch the movie. VERY SIMILAR TO THE REAL THING! It’s uncanny. If you think you can make it with these nuts for 4 years then you’re already prepared. Best wishes and have a blast! Good luck in admissions!
(I’ve gone through two degrees now…)
i’ve decided not to go to an art college, rather, a college that is strong in the arts but not art-specific. since i’m not majoring in painting anymore, this is the right choice for me at this point.
