Rhetoric & Comp – IMPT PORTFOLIO INFO

Quick Tips for Awesome Portfolios

YOUR best writing

  • Clean (no comments) & proofread (plus formatted)
  • Abstracts – on 6 papers (check the format)
  • Letter: should look like a letter 🙂
  • Documents named & flagged appropriately

In all instances, recheck the pink sheets to make sure you get everything just the way it needs to be.

 

IMPT:  After portfolios are submitted today/this evening, they will be temporarily moved.  This means you might not be able to see them in your submissions folder.  Don’t panic.  (Also, you can’t change them anymore).
