Admission
& Scholarship Portfolio
In addition to fulfilling all Emory & Henry College
admissions requirements, a student seeking to be admitted into the Art
program as an Art Major is required to submit a portfolio of 6-8 examples
of art to the Art Department and attend a departmental admissions interview. Incoming first-year students are eligible for scholarships in amounts up to $2500.
The portfolio should contain the student's best work; reflect a range
of abilities, interests, and concepts, demonstrate skill in a variety
of media, and demonstrate an ability to draw from real objects.
The student may submit original work, 35 mm slides or a CD-ROM at the
time of the interview.
SLIDES:
Each slide must be labeled with the applicant's name, title of work
(or name of project, if any), date, medium, and dimensions (height x
width). The topof the work must be specified with an arrow. Slides must
be placed in 8.5 x11 inch plastic sleeves.
CD-ROM:
CD-ROMS should contain 6-8 images, 300 dpi resolution with a maximum
dimension of 5” for each image. All applicants must complete the
departmental questionnaire prior to the interview. The CD-ROM must be
accompanied by printed list including the applicant's name, title of
work (or name of project, if any), date, medium, and dimensions (height
x width).
Portfolios will be reviewed on Fine Arts Day in February. The student
will be notified of the decision of the review committee approximately
two weeks after his/her portfolio review. Students who cannot attend Fine arts Day in February should submit their materials prior to February 20, 2010.
