GRADUATE NATIONAL PORTFOLIO DAYS

Graduate Portfolio Days are for students who have already completed (or are in the process of completing) a bachelor's degree program and are looking to further their education at the graduate level. They follow the same format as Undergraduate National Portfolio Days but provide prospective graduate students with feedback on their portfolios appropriate for those seeking admission to a graduate course of study. The event hosted by Parsons School of Design will also give students the opportunity to learn more about curricula, faculty, application procedures, and other aspects of graduate admission. Even if you do not have a completed portfolio to share with the graduate faculty, we invite you to attend to ask questions and gather more information about the various schools.

Like National Portfolio Days, Graduate Portfolio Days are not an examination or a competition. Attendees should not expect to gain either admission or scholarships to colleges visited during the event. They will have the opportunity to get specific information about portfolio requirements for graduate study at each school visited, direct feedback on their artwork, and the next steps involved in for applying for admission.
