<p>So I'm going to apply as an incoming freshman this fall. I would like to send an art supplement, but I can't seem to find the specifications or requirements on the WUSTL admissions website. </p>
<p>Can anyone link me or give me more details on the instructions for the supplement? Or are they very lax about their guidelines in that I can simply submit works as I please?</p>
<p>Help appreciated!</p>

<p>there is a form for art suppliments on commonapp</p>
<p>Hm, good question. I think he meant things like whether they prefer a CD or slides, how many to submit, preferences in medium, required info, etc. etc.</p>
<p>I’m also wondering the same thing. Anyone?</p>

<p>From WUSTL web site:</p>
<p>
Optional Portfolio</p>
<p>We encourage you to submit a portfolio of completed artwork. A portfolio is optional for first-year admission; it is required for consideration for an academic scholarship. If you elect to submit a portfolio, follow these instructions:</p>
<ul>
<p>Slide Portfolio: Submit good-quality 35mm slides in a plastic slide sleeve. Each slide must be labeled with your name and Social Security Number. The portfolio will be returned by May 1 only if you provide a stamped, self-addressed mailer.</p>
<p>Digital Portfolio: Submit images as a simple, non-timed PowerPoint presentation. Also include all of the work in the presentation, in a separate folder, as jpegs saved at 72 dpi resolution and at a size of 600 pixels in the longest direction. Write your name and Social Security Number on the CD/DVD – DO NOT use a stick-on label. Remember to include an accompanying inventory/contact sheet showing thumbnails of all work on the CD/DVD. The inventory sheet must include your name and Social Security Number. If preferred, you may include additional information such as title of work, medium, dimensions, and date completed.</p>
<p>Mail your portfolio to:
<p>We welcome the opportunity to review your portfolio at a National Portfolio Day (held in major cities around the country) if we happen to be attending one near your home. Or, you may set up a personal visit to Washington University and have your work reviewed in the College of Architecture. A portfolio review gives you a chance to have immediate feedback and gain insight about your work. However, a slide or digital portfolio is still required if you would like to be considered for a scholarship.

<p>Thank you so much!</p>
<p>I didn’t even follow their guidelines and got in to the art school. Just fill out the common ap art form, send the rec. and a CD and you’re done.</p>
