The Transfer Student Portfolio:
The transfer portfolio should demonstrate knowledge of college-level course work. Your portfolio should include items which represent basic skills in design, drawing, painting, color, and sculpture. If enough course work has been completed, the portfolio should also reflect experience in a major field of study.

The portfolio allows the admissions counselor or the divisional dean to evaluate which studio courses will transfer to MIAD and determines class standing. Therefore, your portfolio should include as much work as possible from all studio courses taken while attending other post-secondary institutions.

You may apply to transfer up to 48 studio credits. Transfer of studio courses is determined by the portfolio review. MIAD will only accept studio credits from courses which are compatible with our existing course offerings and for which you received a grade of "C" or better. Transfer credit will only be accepted from a college with regional or professional accreditation.
