This program is for serious students interested in the Performing, Visual, and Communication Arts. Participants spend a semester sharing the experiences of professional writers, performers, artists, and media groups representing all fields of fine and commercial art. Each student has a faculty advisor in New York who teaches an Area Study course and works closely with both the student and the student's apprenticeship sponsor.
Professional artists conduct specially designed courses dealing with current issues in the arts.
Applicants should plan to visit New York City for interviews to secure an apprenticeship. Applications are due in October and March for the following semester.
