Advice on applying to/attending art school

Submitted by AlisonJohnson on Thu, 2006-10-19 23:59.

Hi, I am looking for advice on fine art courses in Sydney. I am thinking of applying to both the National Art School and TAFE. I have no idea about TAFE but have done short courses at the NAS and found them to be useful. My understanding is that it's a hands-on model of teaching which appeals - I want to immerse myself in learning and doing, doing, doing...

Any advice for portfolio submission and interview/test process would be most gratefully received.

I would also love to hear about the experiences of current and previous students, what was it like, what did you gain from the experience, the pros and cons etc.

Thanks!
