Approved List

Because there is often more interest in this program than we can accommodate, and because it is Fall entry only, student’s names are collected throughout the year and placed on Approved List.

Portfolio Review

The Visual Media program has rolling admission. You may apply anytime until the program has reached capacity. You are encouraged to apply sooner rather than later, as often we fill before the Summer quarter and only start in the Fall. The Graphic Design and Visual Media programs will have rolling admission for the remainder of the summer. You may submit a portfolio until September 6, 2024.

Students wishing to enter this program must also submit an entrance portfolio that will be evaluated by faculty members in the Visual Media program. Students are not eligible to join the program until their portfolio has been approved.

Once your entrance portfolio has been approved you have completed the application process to the Visual Media Program. Your name will be added to the list at the next update.

If your first submission is not accepted, you are welcome to resubmit.

Open House: We strongly recommend attending an Open House about this program at your earliest convenience. Open House is scheduled at the beginning of each quarter from 5:30 to 6:30 pm on the fifth floor of the main building. You may drop in anytime, and no RSVP is required.

Fall 2024 – October 16th
Winter 2025 – January 29th
Spring 2025 – May 1st

Enrollment and Registration: Prospective students on the Approved List will be contacted by e-mail late in Spring Quarter. The program will be filled in the order applicants were placed on the Approved List. Suppose the program reaches capacity before we can offer you a position. In that case, you will be invited to declare your wish to remain available to fill any late openings or defer to the following year. DEFERRAL: Students on the Approved List may delay entry by one year with an e-mail request to the Division Office. This can be done only once; at that time, no other process will be necessary.

E-mail Changes: You are responsible for informing us if your e-mail information changes. Please notify the Division Office directly by e-mail.
