Portfolio requirements

The universities that I'm applying for have and like different portfolio structures. Therefore I need to find out what each uni requires within there portfolio structure. This will help me structure and organize my portfolio that will suit the requirements of the university itself and also the course.

Here is a list of portfolio requirements recommended
by each university I'm applying for:

UAL ( Chelsea ): Graphic Design Communication

Portfolios should show the following:

• A concise portfolio indicating self-censorship and critical ability

• Use of words, type and image, realised in a variety of media and formats including still and moving image

• Evidence of an understanding of the broad range of the subject

• Clear documentation of work that’s unavailable or too large to bring

• Self-initiated as well as project or course work

• Evidence of research and development of ideas
