The Post-Baccalaureate Certificate program provides an intensive fine arts studio experience to B.F.A. graduates who may need more studio time in order to prepare a portfolio for application to an M.F.A. program, or who need more experience working in their own studio to develop a body of work. Each student receives a spacious personal studio, weekly guidance from faculty members, group critiques, valuable teaching experience as a Teaching Assistant, and guidance on research, art criticism, and writing artist statements. |
