the art supplement.

<p>Gah, I have so many questions about the art supplement, sorry. If any of them could be answered, that’d be great. And I’d be submitting visual art (photos, paintings, etc.), by the way.</p>

<li><p>I think my artwork is good enough to submit, but I don’t have that many years of art classes or programs (I have 2, counting this year), and I don’t have many awards. Will that hurt me?</p></li>
<li><p>For the art teacher recommendation, does my teacher have to send that in snail mail to each school that takes the commonapp art supplement? Or do I get it from her and upload it to my app myself?</p></li>
<li><p>Is there any particular site they’d prefer to view the art? Because deviantart or flickr would be easiest, but those require some navigating. I could just put all of the pictures on one page, but if I could save myself some time…</p></li>
<li><p>When I submit the supplement, does it automatically submit it to all of my schools that accept it/that I checked off to send it to on their supplements?</p></li>
</ol>

<p>thanks :D</p>

<p>Hi!</p>

<p>1)It shouldn't hurt you as long as your artwork is good in itself! What matters, ultimately, is how talented you are and how your submitted pieces reflect your artistic ability.</p>

<p>2)I got my art teacher to e-mail me his letter, and i printed a copy for each school and added it to the envelopes I sent the schools (sounds like the place you're applying to want URLs rather than slides though - so just get him/her to submit it online via the commonapp)</p>

<p>3)I don't know about this. See what others say. Flickr might be a better decision than DA, though...they'd waste less time trying to click through ads</p>

<p>4)I think so. I'm not submitting mine online, but I suppose it works in the same way as the commonapp submission.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>
