<p>I am extremely interested in this school, my art I think is more than sufficient, but my high school grades don't look to good with 2 f's my freshman year and a d my junior year. Is that too bad? What did your grades look like applying for RISD?</p>
<p>risd is one of the few art schools that DOES care about grades, so that may be a problem</p>
<p>I attended the RISD pre summer program, and they had a little admissions thing. If your grades improved drastically junior year, you might have a chance. But (and people don’t think this because its an Art school) grades and SATs are actually very important to RISD. They said most people have above an 1850 i believe, and they look to grades to see if you are a hardworker. two f’s and a d does not scream hardworker. However, if your grades improved during your junior year you could still get in. I say apply anyway.</p>
