Meet With A Counselor

Two students look at a laptop screen attentively.

High school students and transfer students are invited to meet with an admissions counselor on Pratt’s Brooklyn campus. Admitted students may schedule appointments with counselors beginning March 1. Prospective students may meet with a counselor or schedule a portfolio review from April 1 through November 15. Appointments with 2 weeks notice are required! See below for instructions on how to schedule your appointment with a Pratt admissions counselor.

UNDERGRADUATE ADMISSIONS COUNSELORS:

Although our Admissions Counselors work closely with the schools they are associated with, all of our counselors are knowledgeable about each of Pratt’s schools, departments, and majors, and would be happy to meet with you!

We do not provide portfolio reviews for graduate students or applicants interested in the School of Liberal Arts and Sciences (Writing, Critical and Visual Studies, BA in History of Art and Design). Construction Management does not require a portfolio. Please note that all portfolio reviews are for feedback and guidance only. They do not constitute a formal official review for admission and are not required.

Portfolio Review And Counselor Meeting Options:

1. In-Person or Virtual Meetings and Portfolio Reviews: Admissions counselors meet with prospective students during on-campus or virtual meetings/portfolio reviews which are offered Monday through Friday from April 1 to November 15. Counselors will also meet with admitted students who may have questions about attending Pratt beginning March 1. All visitors to campus must be fully vaccinated as per the information on our campus tours page. Please fill out and submit this form to schedule a meeting with a counselor.

2. National Portfolio Days: Another way to have your work reviewed is to attend one of the National Portfolio Days in your area. Appointments are not necessary. Both in person and virtual options are available. 

What should you bring to a portfolio review? When meeting with one of our admissions counselors for a portfolio review, please bring no more than 15–20 original pieces of your most recent work in 2-D or 3-D formats as well as sketchbook material, if you have it. Please note that all portfolio reviews are for feedback and guidance only. They do not constitute a formal official review for admission. If you are unable to bring original work, we are happy to view work on your iPad or laptop.
