University application portfolio

The University Application Portfolio will provide you with clear and tangible evidence that you are an authentic critical thinker, are able to link your subject knowledge to the real-world, and can reference key ideas and thinkers to support your claims.

It will stand you apart from other candidates, and help you secure your choice of course at the university you want to attend!
