Q & A FOR HOME SCHOOLED STUDENTS

Q: How do I make application?

A: Contact the Admissions Office and they will guide you through the application process. You will be asked to provide a certificate of completion that is recognized by your home state.

Q: Do I have to have a SAT or other recognized score?

A: No, a SAT score is not required for application.

Q: Scholarship information states that I need to be "...a high school graduate or equivalent". Does this mean that I may apply for scholarships at the School?

A: Yes, your certificate of completion is recognized by the School and you may apply for those scholarships for which you meet their stated requirements. Contact the Admissions Office for details.

Q: Is there any special focus I should take in my home schooling studies in preparation for enrollment at the School?

A: If you plan to be considered for the Digital Filmmaking, Animation, Internet Development and Digital Media Arts series of programs, you will want to consider strong attention to the following courses of study leading up to admission to the School:

English and/or English Composition has a wonderful value as an option for those who wish to direct or create film, video, e-commerce solutions for the Internet. Becoming a writer of ideas and expression may eventually separate you from the crowd of usual artists, photographers, camera persons, illustrators, etc.

Art and related courses are always valuable if you plan to head toward the creative disciplines at the School. However, art direction and graphic design take the lead in preparing one for advanced positions in digital imaging. Most programs at the School add to art direction and design development.

The School will attempt to make classroom space available to home study groups as facility schedules at the School permit.
