Application information

Entry requirements

Prerequisites to Degree Programs: An earned bachelor’s degree with an art major concentration or its equivalent. Consideration will be given to applicants without an art major concentration who present evidence of proficiency in creative work in the visual arts. Acceptance to the M.F.A. degree program requires a two-semester art history survey or its equivalent. Failing to meet this requirement, the M.F.A. student is required to complete the appropriate semesters of survey of art history for non-graduate credit. In addition to the requirements for admission to the Graduate School, the applicant must also submit the following materials to the School of Art: transcripts of college level work; at least three letters of reference concerning art work, work habits, and potential for graduate study in art; a portfolio of art works; a personal statement concerning background, conceptual and tech

Tuition is charged per credit, so the total depends on the modules you register for each year. Current fees are listed in the official fee schedule.

Graduate entry terms: Fall, Spring and Summer sessions.

Graduate School application deadlines: August 1 for fall, December 1 for spring, April 15 for summer sessions; some departments set earlier deadlines. The application fee is $60 for new applicants; $30 for returning UA graduate students.

Law (JD): priority application deadline April 15, with rolling review after that date; admission is for the full-time program in the fall.
