ArtCenter 2024-2025 Catalog

Introduction

ArtCenter’s visionary approach to art and design education is based on the College’s conservatory-like approach to teaching and learning; a desire for rich, intercultural and transdisciplinary dialogue; and a mandate to provide students innovative learning and making spaces.

ArtCenter’s rigorous academic policies, ranging from grading policies to graduation rates, form the framework for the College’s commitment to excellence.

These policies and procedures are not intended to outline every process that takes place at the College. Individual departments and offices will work with students on understanding procedures or processes unique to that department or office.

In addition to ArtCenter policies, all students, faculty, staff and visitors are expected to comply with local, state and federal laws while on campus.

Welcome to our community of makers—you will take risks and develop skills while becoming thoughtful, compassionate citizens of the world.
