Graphic design BLOCK is a highly competitive, mandatory portfolio review that occurs at the end of a student's sophomore year. Over 30 students go up each semester, only 12-13 people get in EVERY semester. If you get in the first time, congratulations! You'll be able to continue the BFA Graphic Design degree. If you don't get in the first time, it's okay you have a second chance! However, if you go up the second time and you don't get in, you would need to change your major. You only got 2 tries, make them count! Good luck!
