Have more than one portfolio review and summit aAug 24 2011Art & Design Department
Have more than one portfolio review and summit a portfolio ( it is not necessary but everything helps). Take the SATS and summit them unless you think it will hurt your chances ( again it is not necessary to summit SATS but it helps) Visit and take a tour, showing real interest in the school, research before hand and decided what field you want to major in. I think the school really likes applicants who do more than just fill out the application and wait.

The requirements are bare minimum. If you can doodle, you'll be accepted. It's about money to them.

Had to jump through a lot of hoops, whileAug 02 2011Perfomance Arts
Had to jump through a lot of hoops, while most others did not. It would appear all you need to do is have enough money to pay them. Looking back, I feel rather foolish giving into their demands only to find out that I was an AAA candidate b/c of my GI-Bill. Ha! They had actaully accepted me three months before my so-called audition and portfolio review.

Here's what I did and also what happenedJul 22 2011Perfomance Arts
Here's what I did and also what happened;

1. Submitted a portfolio and audition video, which it turns out they did not look at until I had questions about why I was being forced to take classes for which I had already received training and credit at other institutions. Ha! All of sudden my work was not good enough, and I needed more foundations courses. Liars!

2. Had plenty of financial aid, resources and did not need any loans.

Here's my recommendation;

1. DON'T
