What successful grads have to say
Meghan Boudreau
Graphic Communications
The Graphic Communications program was great because it helped me develop stronger skills in the areas where I was lacking. It gave me the basic design skills that I needed to build my portfolio, which I submitted to the University of Alberta. I have now been accepted into the Bachelor of Design Program.
