WHAT IS PORTFOLIO DAY?
 

A portfolio is a collection of artwork that you have made that exemplifies your interests, commitment, and skills in art and design. The portfolio that you submit when applying to NSCAD University demostrates to the admissions committee your readiness to be a student here. 

On Portfolio Day, you have the opportunity to receive helpful and encouraging feedback on your portfolio as you prepare to apply. Whether you are applying for Fall 2022 and have a robust portfolio or are still a few years away and are just starting to build your portfolio, Portfolio Day can give you a gentle push in the right direction.
