About This Course
Duration
Level
An art and design portfolio is a core indicator to art and design schools that you have the skills, creativity and dedication to be a successful student. Top art and design schools often accept very small percentages of applicants. Understanding how to produce a great portfolio of creative projects is crucial. The WeDesign team mentors you throughout this process, building portfolio projects tailored to your needs and the art and design school of your dreams.
