Harvard Visual Art Supplement

<p>I am aware that questions as to whether or not applicants can send visual art supplements in CD format have been asked in the past, but I was wondering if anyone had heard anything recently about that issue? Harvard asks for slide format on the website unless digital format is absolutely essential for viewing pieces, but I have heard some instances in which individuals called Harvard, and the person who answered the phone said that CD's were fine. </p>

<p>Clarification?</p>

<p>Also, if anyone has had experience with sending CDs successfully, what size and dpi are preferable?</p>

<p>That’s a good question! I helped my sister send her art portfolio to scholarship competitions, and they requested that a CD be sent with her best work (in Harvard’s case, 12 works of art) at a resolution of 300dpi. I would call or email Harvard’s admissions office just to be on the safe side. Best of luck!</p>
