Do you have a student with talent in the fine and /or performing arts? We can help students organize their portfolios, apply for special scholarships, and strengthen their overall application. However, the process of submitting an art portfolio is especially time-consuming, because every college has a different set of requirements. It is important to get an early start. We can help students research and target colleges with specific BA or BFA programs. Additionally, we help organize portfolios, prescreen requirements, auditions, and essays, in order to make the process less stressful.

Fine Art, Graphic Design, Architecture, and Film

Students applying to visual arts, graphic design, architecture, or film programs, make sure to attend a National Portfolio Day event. Representatives from accredited colleges will review your artwork and offer feedback. This is a great way to find out about different programs and make connections. Julie can help you write a compelling artist statement, select and organize your portfolio, and then upload everything to Slide Room ready to submit.

Performing Arts & Musical Theatre

Some colleges participate in the Unified Auditions for acting and musical theatre, which allows students to audition for numerous university programs in one location. This saves both time and money. Other colleges hold auditions on campus during specific days or weekends. Often prescreen videos need to be uploaded through the Acceptd website. Advance planning is crucial to successful auditions. Make sure you check the dates that each college opens its audition registration, since dates and times fill up fast.
