<p>Thanks IDMom.
Looks like I will have to have a decent portfolio but will not necessarily have to perfect it. </p>
<p>My list right now looks like:
UC/DAAP
RISD
California College of Arts
College for Creative Studies
SCAD
Carnegie Mellon</p>
<p>Looked mostly into DAAP and will hopefully be able to attend their DAAPcamp this summer.</p>
