Admission Requirements

Admission to the B.F.A.Art or B.A. Art program is through the Foundations Portfolio Review (usually during the sophomore year). Students are admitted to the program provided they student have met the following requirements: 

1. Completion of: ART 1340, ART 1350, ART 1045, ART 1360 , and 

2. Completion of a Foundations Portfolio Review in which the faculty will vote based on the quality of the student's presented work and accompanying written statements.  Should a student not meet the scoring criteria during their first review they will be deffered and can attempt the review again the following semester. A student can be denied entrance to the program upon a second deferral vote. A copy of the scoring rubric is available, along with more information about the Foundations Portfolio Review, from the Art + Design office, Art + Design Room 235.

Foreign Language Requirements

The BA requires completion of courses in a foreign language through the 2010 and 2020 Intermediate Level. We recommend taking 1000-level Foreign Language courses that can also count as Humanities/Fine Arts Gen Ed Core.
