“Commit. Put the work into your portfolio, so that no matter what happens, you know you did your best and can be proud. No doubt, if you’re thinking about applying, you’re probably talented and skilled. All you truly need to do is to take that initiative and give it your all. Don’t be scared of possibly failing. Getting rejected isn’t a failure. Never trying is. So try your best. For some people their best includes hours of work, going to portfolio reviews, and talking to current students. For others, it’s just clicking the “upload” button on SlideRoom. Both are valid. But no matter what, just make sure you follow through and make a commitment to this application.”
