Please Log In to your Portal, find the Scholarship tab, and follow the instructions to apply. For questions not answered below, please contact your advisers or come to the Art Office, M-F, 8am-5pm. I hope this information is helpful. Thank you, Jade Jewett, Chair, ART Department FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS • What is my current degree and concentration? Please check your TDA for your specific degree and listed concentration. • Who applies for these two BFA concentrations? All Bachelor of Arts (BA) students who enrolled in CSUF in Fall 2017 forward will apply for these two Bachelors of Fine Arts (BFA) concentrations. This includes every transfer student who entered CSUF in Fall 2017, Spring 2017, or Fall 2018; and every first-time freshman student who entered CSUF in Fall 2017, Spring 2017, or Fall 2018. • What if I am already a BFA student in these concentrations? If you were already approved & processed by Admissions and Records prior to August 20, 2018, and are currently a BFA student in the Entertainment Art/Animation or Illustration concentration, and then you do not have to apply AGAIN to the BFA concentration in which you are currently registered. • What if I want to be in two concentrations? If you are already an approved BFA student currently within a concentration, AND also want to apply to either the Entertainment Art/Animation or Illustration concentration as your second area of study (for a dual focus), then YES you must complete the Portfolio Review process to apply for the second concentration. Please note: For clarity, if you are currently an Entertainment Art/Animation or Illustration BFA major who wants to be in both concentrations, then YES you must still apply for the concentration not currently showing on your TDA. • Does everyone need to do a Portfolio Review? No. Currently, there are no Portfolio Reviews for the following undergraduate concentrations in the BA: Art History, General Studio, Teaching (Art Education); and the BFA: Ceramics, Creative Photography and Experimental Media, Drawing and Painting, Graphic and Interactive Design, Jewelry and Metals, and Sculpture. • What is the degree or concentration for freshman and transfer students? All students enter the university as BA majors and must apply for their specific concentrations in the BA and BFA degrees. The application for all majors, except for the Entertainment Art/Animation or Illustration concentrations, is by a form obtained from the Art Office and signed by your professor.
