Given
the relative unimportance of grades and test
scores in M.F.A. and M. Arch. admissions,
the portfolio becomes the critical factor
in determining the applicant's success. A
great portfolio not only demonstrates the
depth of your artistic vision, but also places
the rest of your application (including your
essay) into perspective. You must use the
portfolio to explain the fundamental meaning
of your designs, your projected audience and
intention, and how your work addresses broader
societal currents. Above all, you must create
a beautiful object (your book) consisting
of clear and well organized projects, that
will make even the busiest admissions official
respect you and feel compelled to admit you. |

At Portfolic,
we have great experience with portfolio
development for Graduate Design School Applications.
All of our graduate-school workshop coaches
are graduates of some of the most prestigious
design schools in the country, and have
a lot of experience in both actively editing/
developing portfolios and also coaching
Grad-school candidates. Our coaches and
our research allow us to determine what
types of projects are ideal for an application
to a specific school at a specific point
in time. We make sure that we create plans
for the development of unique portfolios
that will pull your application apart from
the rest.
The
most important aspect of a project that
is submitted for consideration is demonstrating
that the person responsible for it can think
in a unique and sophisticated manner. It
is also extremely important to demonstrate
the ability to think using different types
of media and different approaches.
Our methods are constantly tested, and have
been examined and reexamined over the past
ten years. We know what will work, and we
have proven the effectiveness of our approach
through the success rate of our undergraduate
students, which approaches 100% for first
choice architecture, design or art schools,
and over 80% for some type of merit based
scholarship.
We offer
several types of workshops for undergraduate
applicants: 1-on-1, Group workshops, Online
workshops and a variety of portfolio editing
packages. You can contact us by email, or
call and receive answers to all of your
questions about the travel workshops and
any other Portfolic service.
