We welcome you to a virtual open house with Graduate Program Advisor Beth Stuart and members of the current MFA cohort. This one time session will offer a brief overview of the program, a walkthrough of some facilities, and plenty of space to answer questions. This session will not include any coaching on portfolios, but information and general advice can be gathered though the Visual Arts Application Information page and our FAQ. Note that the MFA does not require a supervisor to be contacted or selected before admission to the program.
