The Hussian School of Art believes that a potential student’s ability to succeed in the Visual Arts is not always accurately predicted through an evaluation of high school transcripts and standardized test scores alone. Artists, visual people, may not always test well academically. They may tend to relate more to visual hands-on courses and situations and can sometimes be less academically motivated.

We believe that a personal interview and an evaluation of your portfolio of art examples, along with an understanding of your current academic transcript, will be the combined indicator of your talent, motivation and career potential.

Don’t be overly concerned with what is in your portfolio. We see many portfolios–from ones that reflect previous formal training, to portfolios of individuals who are mostly self-taught and haven’t yet had that formal exposure–but represent a talent that can develop into a highly successful Designer or Illustrator. The school is looking for students who have a sincere desire to explore new possibilities, work hard to realize their personal best and who are eager to produce original works of art.
