Describe the work you submitted for merits.

I submitted the work I created for my first-year foundation classes.

Why did you decide to come to MCAD?

I decided to come to MCAD because I liked how MCAD is a private school specializing in the visual arts and is located in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

The next steps are first growing my graphic design portfolio over the summer and preparing for classes next school year.
