The entrance examination is comprised of two parts. After registering in time for the deadline, the applicant hands in a portfolio and a work assignment realised on a set theme (which will be communicated by the department in due time). If both the portfolio and the work assignment are assessed positively, the applicant is invited to an aptitude interview.
