Cooper Union Art School

<p>How hard is it to get in? Do you think I can get in if my portfolio/hometest is really good but my average is 85? What kind of SAT/ACT scores do I need? What average do I need to get in?</p>

<p>Cooper’s art school is extremely prestigious and admission is based almost entirely on your portfolio and home test. SAT scores and average are not really looked at; they want to see your art ability. The art school is the hardest to gain admissions to, with an acceptance rate of around 3%, or so I’ve heard.
Work extremely hard on your portfolio and your self test when you receive it.</p>
