Studio Art 1

Program Note

1. The Honours Studio Art program is a limited enrolment program for which entrance requires the permission of the School of the Arts and a successful portfolio interview. The portfolio should contain a variety of works in different media that represent the applicant’s creative abilities and interests. Aptitude in art, academic ability and demonstrated commitment to the discipline are considered in the selection process. In exceptional circumstances, where distance does not allow for an interview, portfolios may be submitted in the form of electronic digital images or photographs. Portfolio interviews occur between January and April each year for entrance in September of the same calendar year. Only those students who call the Office of the School of the Arts (905-525-9140, ext. 27671) before March 1st to book appointments for portfolio interviews will be guaranteed consideration for entrance into the Level I Art courses. (Late applicants will only be interviewed if space availability permits). Permission to register in Level I Art courses will be verified with written confirmation from the School of the Arts. School of the Arts verification and a Letter of Admission to Studio Art 1 from the University will guarantee a space in the program as long as the student meets the minimum academic requirements as outlined under School of the Arts programs in the Faculty of Humanities section of the Calendar. When applying for admission using the OUAC application, applicants who wish to study Studio Art should select MHS for the OUAC code and choose STUDIO ART for the Subject of Major Interest.
