Student ePortfolios

Students will be required to submit an electronic portfolio and supporting documentation during their last semester before graduation.

The ePortfolio has two primary tasks:

  • First, it serves as a central repository that allows us to evaluate the elements of your application for the ISC. It is in the ePortfolio that you will provide research papers, photos of events, reflective essays, etc.
  • More importantly, the ePortfolio is a way to highlight who you are and to show off the skills, history and characteristics that demonstrate your comfort in multicultural contexts.

  2. Make your e-Portfolio using a content management system

    You can use www.wix.com or any other content management system of your choosing to create your e-portfolio. We have created a template to show what an ePortfolio made in Wix might look like.
