ARTT-250 Portfolio Assessment
This course is designed to prepare advanced visual arts students for the portfolio review process at transfer institutions. Acceptance and placement into programs of advanced study are most frequently based upon a review of a portfolio of the student's work. Each student's portfolio will be reviewed, and strengths, deficiencies, and omissions will be noted. In working sessions during the course of the semester, those deficiencies and omissions will be corrected. Students will learn how to make slides, mat, mount, and otherwise prepare work for the transfer portfolio review. They will review sample portfolios and learn about the transfer review process from admissions officers, alumni, and art instructors. At the end of the course students will have an exit portfolio review where they will have a final assessment of their preparedness for the transfer process.
