Note(s): Sophomore portfolio review

The sophomore portfolio review, ART 2900 , is for the Art & Design student who has completed (including current classes) 12-15 credit hours of selected core Art & Design coursework. The review is intended to provide feedback on the student’s artistic growth progress. At the review we will be assessing drawing and compositional skills, presentation skills, ability to discuss and exhibit work and the student’s level of knowledge about current professional activity in his or her program area.

A minimum cumulative GPA of 2.5 in Art & Design courses is required to be eligible for participating in sophomore portfolio review. Passing the sophomore portfolio review is a prerequisite to enrolling in junior level courses.
