PLEASE NOTE: Students are NOT allowed to tryout after the above stated deadline. Late portfolios will not be accepted under any circumstance. Portfolios that have missing pieces such as a sculpture, or painting, WILL result in a lower score, and may jeopardize student’s acceptance into the program. Pieces of art that are handed in late will NOT be accepted.
