入职第一年

The 平面设计 program does not require a design portfolio for incoming students. It is through the first year in the program that students are prepared for this demanding and competitive profession. At the end of that first academic year, students are required to prepare and submit a portfolio of work from specific courses. Upon a successful review, those students will be fully admitted to the 平面设计 major.

The portfolio includes projects from the following courses:

转学

Transfer students who wish to start the program have two options, depending on their background and graphic design courses they have already taken.

Option 1: Enter as a first year in the 平面设计 program, no transfer portfolio required.

This option is for transfer students without a portfolio or enough graphic design courses. They can start the 4-year degree with us and transfer their core courses. This option will take 4 years to be able to graduate. A meeting with faculty advisor is required to assess and coordinate transition. A portfolio review will be required after their first year with graphic design courses at 校本 for official entrance into the program.

Option 2: Enter as a second year in the 平面设计 program, submission and approval of transfer portfolio is required.

This option assesses previous school work and course equivalency. If applicant is approved to start in year two, it will take 3 remaining years to complete the BFA. 以下是要求:

• 当然相等- Send a transcript that shows proof of courses equivalent to those in our freshmen year. Also, provide a link to the school’s syllabus or course descriptions.
• 投资组合- Submit portfolio of projects. This can be link to a website, physical or a digital PDF. For PDF, make sure to provide work in a multi-page layout. Limit portfolio to 10 projects. See en关闭d Transfer Student 项目组合评估 Application with rubric of assessment.
