Do i have a shot at RISD
I am an international student from India, i got selected at Art Center for Transport design, i know RISD is no.1, but they dont have a transport design program! Also RISD industrial design program ranks # 2. But it’s the prestige thing about RISD! And intense application procedure they have - man driving me nuts! My grades are no good but I believe my portfolio is strong - any suggestions

Most of their students have high SATs and good grades. You should try to find out the relative importance of the portfolio.
