Graphic Design Portfolio Review
Admission into the Graphic Design option is selective and competitive. Students wishing to enter the program must first pass the annual Portfolio Review at the end of each Fall term to be accepted into the program. To be eligible for the review, students must be enrolled in or have completed Foundations courses ART 101, ART 115, ART 117, ART 120, ART 121, and ART 122 and must take ART 225: Introduction to Graphic Design during the fall term of the sophomore year. ART 225 is designed to prepare students for the portfolio review at the end of fall term. Students will be selected to fill a limited number of openings in the graphic design program based on performance in ART 225 and on the portfolio review. Academic performance in other courses may also be taken into account. (Students transferring to OSU must enroll in ART 225 prior to taking part in the portfolio review. Transfer students should consult with an adviser in the Art Department before registering for OSU courses.) Students who are unsuccessful in gaining admission to the Graphic Design program may reapply one time the following year. Contact the department for specific details.
