Preview Days and Portfolio Review Day
Each year DCAD holds opens houses, "Preview Day," for prospective students and their families to experience what the College can offer. Preview Days are scheduled for the fall and spring. A Portfolio Review Day is scheduled in the winter. Call 302.622.8000 ext.118 for more information.

The Winter Portfolio Review Day will take place on President's Day, Monday February 20, 2012. DCAD’s Portfolio Review Day is a great opportunity to show your portfolio to a DCAD Admissions Representative and receive valuable feedback about your artwork.  If you bring a completed application and your transcripts, we will be able to provide you with an admissions decision as well. Portfolio reviews will take about 20 minutes and visitors have the option of taking a campus tour.
