The AEMM Graduate Program and the Arts Management Department recently participated in the establishment of the Chicago Center for Arts Policy. Additional prerequisites may be necessary subject to a review of the applicant's transcript, work experience and self-assessment essay. In addition to the above requirements, applicants are expected to show appropriate background and experience in their chosen area of specialization. A decision on acceptance will be made after this final interview. Students wishing to be considered for institutional financial aid awards must complete their files by March 15.
Early application is encouraged for all programs.
Once an application packet is received, it is reviewed by the Graduate School and, if complete, forwarded to the Committee on Admissions in the applicant's program. Degree candidates must maintain a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 or better in graduate course work to be awarded the MA degree. The AEMM graduate curriculum reflects the professional experiences of the faculty who are working artist-performers, successful managers, and executives of leading arts, entertainment and media organizations.
