Hey everyone, I’m a current senior in high school wrapping up my college applications. I noticed that many colleges do in fact take art portfolios even if you’re not an art major (I’m majoring in CS) and I wanted to ask if anyone has experience creating a portfolio/using it to apply to college with.

A few questions if you don’t mind:

1. Is it even allowed? Does Web Design really fall under the scope of “visual art”? I noticed some schools (like Yale) have very vague policies on this, so I couldn’t really tell.
2. How did you make the portfolio? I was thinking take a full-page screenshot of each design, and just have a pdf with each page representing one design. Something like that?

Any advice/experience helps! Thank you.
