Concordia Intermedia letter of intent
Concordia's Intermedia major asks applicants to explain why they chose the programme, the media and disciplines they want to study, their academic and artistic background, and their goals. The letter accompanies a portfolio with at least 15 examples of work in video, electronic, or performance art. This route is distinct from Concordia's Computation Arts and Film programmes.
Writing format
One-page letter in English or French, alongside an Intermedia portfolio
What to prepare
- 1Explain the artistic question that makes Intermedia, rather than a single-medium programme, the right place for your work.
- 2Name the specific media or disciplines you want to combine and connect them to work already shown in your portfolio.
- 3Describe your academic and artistic preparation, then state what you hope to develop through the programme.
How to approach the writing
- Use the one-page letter to explain choices and direction; let the portfolio show the work itself.
- Curate the required examples so a reviewer can navigate them easily and see your interests across video, electronic, and performance work.
Before you submit
Concordia lists fall-only admission and a March 1 programme deadline, with February 1 advised for U.S. and international applicants. Its current programme page does not label those dates with an intake year; confirm the live cycle and department's portfolio submission process before applying.
