The 2025 application season has kicked off with exciting news at Green Apple Art Center! 🎉
Our outstanding student Macey has been successfully admitted to New York University (NYU) through Early Decision, securing her dream school in the very first round! Even more impressively, the portfolio she created at Green Apple also earned her offers from 10 other prestigious institutions, including top art schools like Parsons and Pratt.
This is not just an admission letter—it’s a recognition of both her academic strength and her artistic talent.
01
Why NYU?
NYU is not only located at the heart of the art and culture capital—Manhattan, New York City—but also offers students unparalleled access to academic excellence, creative industry resources, and a powerful alumni network.
Being accepted through Early Decision means that Macey stood out to the admissions committee in the very first round. This reflects the exceptional quality of her portfolio and her ability to express unique artistic perspectives.

Portfolio: From Beginner to Breakthrough
Macey’s artistic journey wasn’t always dazzling from the start. Just two years ago, she was still exploring her creative voice. Today, her portfolio demonstrates a clear thematic focus, diverse material experiments, and a distinctive personal style.
Under the guidance of Green Apple’s professional mentors, she systematically developed her skills in:
Thematic Development: Connecting personal stories with broader social reflections to form profound artistic narratives.
Material Exploration: Expanding beyond traditional painting to experiment with various media and techniques.
Style Evolution: Moving from imitation to originality, ultimately building a strong personal visual language.
It was this fusion of thinking, technical skill, and individuality that made her portfolio shine in the eyes of admissions officers across multiple top schools.
