Plans for an Art College?

By: Kayla



     Not sure which art college is right for you? Not everyone is for sure which one is the best one for them.  But there are hundreds of art programs available in the U.S.  But there is one I must suggested sounds perfect at least for me. 
     Have you ever heard of Hollins University?  Hollins University is located in Roanoke, Virginia.  It is a private liberal arts university.  It is one of the oldest institutes for higher educations for women today. All undergraduate are for females only.  But, men are welcomed in the graduate programs too.  Hollins offers a small classes with the 11:1 student-teacher ratio.The most popular majors  would be English, Psychology, studio art, business, and biology.
     What are the college requirements for Hollins University? A student will receive credit for those courses taken at a regionally accredited college that are similar to Hollins courses and in which she has earned at least a "C" grade. In order to obtain a bachelor's degree from  Hollins, students must complete a minimum of 40 credit hours.  Your SAT score I must be at least 900. You must rank in the top two fifths of your secondary school class.  You must have at least a 3.0 GPA which is recommended. Hollins University charges a non-refundable application fee of $35. With special admission requirement a letter of recommendation is required. Admissions interview is recommended as well as a personal orientation & an interaction campus session with a campus visit.
      Depending on what major you persist with there will be different qualifications for each. Applicant returns Outstanding With Visual Arts you will need portfolio that consists your works in the last 2 years, a list of all your art studies in high school, privately, summer programs/camps. Applicants must return Achievement Award Information  Form to Office of Admissions. their art entries to the Office of Admissions by February 1st.  
     This school seems to appeal to me because its not to big of a school and not to small.  They seem to have different great programs and more.  It has a financial aid and more if I were to live on their campus.  They really seem to be one outstanding college!  So if you aren't sure what college is right for you check this university out!
