Student Websites to Showcase Special Talents
in Arts or Athletics
Many colleges using the Common Application accept the Arts Supplement or Athletics Supplement. https://www.commonapp.org/CommonApp/DownloadForms.aspx.
The online version of the Arts Supplement specifically requests a website address as a way of submitting visual art samples or artistic performances. Position U 4 College offers the service of creating custom student websites to display your artistic or athletic talents, Click here for an example of one of our custom iWeb student websites.
We can help you:
- Dramatize your unique positioning by showcasing your special talents
- Create a place to mount your performing or visual arts resume that allows you to "own the narrative"
- Make it easy for admissions officers to view your performances or portfolio via the Internet
PERFORMING OR VISUAL ARTS
This website would not replace in-person auditions required for performing arts majors. It is intended for applicants who want to show how they could contribute to the college community by participating in music, dance or theatre extra-curricular activities. For visual art majors, it could serve as the portfolio (check with the school); for non-majors, it could display an applicant's creativity in art or photography.
ATHLETICS
This website would not replace the competitive athletic recruiting requirements for Division I sports applicants. It is intended for applicants who want to show how they could contribute to the college community by participating in Division III or club sports.
