[Art/Design] How to get in without a folio?
« on: October 04, 2014, 02:00:43 pm »

Currently in year 12, didn't do a folio subject this year and now looking to get into an art or design course next year having no folio, i.e. a prerequisite for many of the courses. My question is, is it still possible to get in? If not, what are my options? Mainly looking into doing Fine Art but I'm open to all. Thanks!

This isn't Fine Art, but I don't believe Swinburne Design courses require you to do a folio?

Definitely look at some TAFE pathways though.

Yeah you are correct, some places (not just Swinburne) don't require a folio which I have been looking into.

Would you be able to shed more light on TAFE pathways?

TAFE pathways - I haven't looked specifically into this in particular, but you could go to a TAFE institute that's not particularly acclaimed for art (as the super big ones will require you to do a folio), but I'd imagine you could do, eg, a Cert II in Fine Arts at say, Chisholm, and then go on to do Diplomas, etc, at a super big, prestigious one.

Do you have any art at all you can quickly put together and shove into a folio?
