Portfolio Instructions

This section will lay out the correct steps to ensure that your portfolios are submitted in the appropriate format and manner.

The Portfolio 2020-2021 Assignment will open on December 4th and end at 11:59 pm on January 15th. This year, portfolios will be submitted via D2L instead of email. Do not submit your portfolio via email. We highly recommend keeping a folder on your computer or drive of each year’s portfolio documents. Additionally, when interviewing for jobs or residencies, consider bringing copies of some of your portfolio materials in a binder (e.g. your CV, pdfs of your poster presentations, publications, other presentations).

If your portfolio is not received by the deadline, it is considered late and you will lose points!
