Visual Art scholarship for all fields (design, photography, painting) all follow the same specification and are linked directly to your external folio you are doing. Scholarship requires you to be experimental and risk-taking. You must keep an on going workbook as your idea develops and then at the end compile only 8 workbook pages for the scholarship workbook.

  1. The workbook and the portfolio submission must be prepared together, in parallel, in the same year.

  2. The workbook must be submitted in an A3 clearfile folder. Other folders, such as A3 ring binder folders, or other sizes of folder, are not acceptable.

  3. Workbook material is limited to eight single-sided A3 pages. Additional pages will not be assessed.

  4. Workbook material may be displayed as either portrait or landscape orientation.

  5. The Scholarship workbook must start with a title page that references the portfolio as a whole (this means an image of your completed folio).This page will NOT count in the candidate’s allocated eight A3 pages, and is for the marker’s reference.



You will use information from your website edited and condensed into 8 A3 pages for the submission. Use InDesign for making your A3 pages. You will then export the page as an image to add to your google slideshow for feedback.
