Items we need from you

Items you’ll ask others to send us

1. Evidence of your creativity

IF YOU ARE A FRESHMAN (U.S. CITIZEN)

We want to see any kind of work that showcases your creativity. Dare to be different! You are creative, and so are we—so show us what you love to do, and we’ll help you find your place here at CCAD. Questions about your options? We’re glad to talk about them with you. 2. Letters of recommendation (at least one) We require at least one letter of recommendation from an art instructor, guidance counselor, professional artist, or employer who can speak to your abilities and talents. You will need contact information (full name, title, email address, and mailing address) for each person from whom you plan to request a recommendation. 3. Personal statement A personal statement is required—but we don’t think about it in the traditional sense. We ask our students to “Write it. Film it. Design it. Picture it.” while answering three questions: Who are you, what do you love, and what does creativity mean to you? 4. Nonrefundable application fee ($40) This is required to submit your application, but need-based fee waivers are available. Current high school students should request the NACAC or College Board fee waiver application from their high school counselor and send it under separate cover from the application. All other students should contact the Admissions office.

1. Official high school transcript(s) or GED score report Ask your counselor or other high school official to submit your high school transcript (grades 9–12). If you have coursework from another high school that doesn’t appear on your current transcript, we need to see that, too. Print a Transcript Request Form from www.ccad.edu to give to any school you need a transcript from—it includes all the instructions to send a transcript to CCAD. 2. College credit transcript (if applicable) If you received college credit as a high school student, we need to see that transcript. Call the college’s registrar and request that official transcripts be sent directly to CCAD from each college you attended. 3. Final high school and college transcripts After you graduate from high school, send us a transcript or transcripts that reflect your final grades.

3. Official high school transcript(s) or GED score report (if applicable) We only need this if you’ve completed fewer than 45 hours of college credit. 4. Final transcripts If you’re currently enrolled in college-level work, you’ll need to submit a transcript that reflects your final grades. 5. AP/IB test scores If you completed Advanced Placement coursework through the College Board or participated in an International Baccalaureate program, request official test scores and send them to us so you can receive credit. IF YOU ARE A TRANSFER STUDENT (INTERNATIONAL STUDENT) Items 1–4 from above transfer requirements, along with: 5. TOEFL/IELTS test scores Proof of English proficiency is required. If you’re from a country where English is not the only official language, we need you to meet the minimum required score on one of these tests: • TOEFL 500 • iBT 61 • IELTS 6.0 Scores must be sent directly from the testing agency. 6. Proof of finances

4. ACT or SAT scores ACT/SAT scores are not required. But we do highly recommend that you submit a standardized test score, because it will factor into academic scholarship consideration and will be reviewed, with other indicators, to show your academic ability and potential. All homeschooled students are required to submit the ACT or SAT unless otherwise approved. Have the testing agency send your scores directly to CCAD unless the scores appear on your high school transcript.

Please provide financial records showing that you have at least US $44,000 available for the first year of study. 7. Proof of citizenship and immigration status Submit a copy of your passport, and, if you already in the United States, send a copy of your current immigration status.
