I'm applying to art schools requiring portfolios; what should my portfolio include?

This depends on what the specific college requires. Some will want portraits, stills, graphic, and/or authentic (organic) work. It is best to check the specific requirements at the colleges. Also, visit the NACAC website, as there is a performing and visual arts fair every year all over the country where admission representatives are glad to give you feedback on your portfolio.
