24
   Research the industry – Make sure you have some
    understanding of the specific industry so that you don’t
    make obvious errors. Talk to people in the industry.
   Research the school – make sure you know the course
    offerings and the focus of the diploma. Read their website,
    brochures. Go to their Open House. Talk to students,
    lecturers.
   Big tip: Art and Design are not the same thing. Design is not
    just self-expression, but the creation of visual artifacts to
    fulfill a specific client’s needs. In Visual Design, Art skills are
    used to solve client’s (marketing) problems.

                                                                          25
 Have appropriate clothing for the interview – if not
  buy some new clothes!
 Location – make sure you know where the school is
  and arrive early.
 Bring all your necessary things – portfolios show the
  “evidence” of your skills and abilities.
 Be prepared for aptitude tests.
