[quote=Anonymous]My dc is an art student. Only applied to top ten art programs (school ranking was not even considered). Besides good grades and test scores you have to submit a portfolio of your work. This is where it is different from normal admission. It doesn’t matter how good your gpa/sat is, if your portfolio isn’t good you don’t get in. Top art programs are hard. My art student spends much more time on school work than my top 10 school other kids. And when you get to internships it is the same thing, must always submit a portfolio. As a parent looking in, I have seen that it is imperative to go to a top art school, like anyone else who chooses top 10; for the better professors, better opportunities, and networking.[/quote]
