The
Graduate Program in Arts Administration is open to qualified
applicants who have earned a bachelor's degree from a fully accredited
college or university in the United States or abroad. No specific
undergraduate course of study is required for admission to the
program, although candidates must have acquired a level of expertise
in one art discipline that is approximately equivalent to a baccalaureate
degree.
The
Admissions Committee, composed of representatives of the faculty
and administrative staff, evaluate application credentials and
makes decisions regarding admission to the program. Emphasis
is placed upon the applicant's demonstrated scholastic ability,
academic aptitude for graduate study in management, maturity,
previous work experience, and career potential.
Admissions
Timetable
Admission
is normally granted for September and January of each year. A majority
of students begin in the September, and a smaller number begin in
