Graduate admission requirements

Application for admission to the MFA program must be made by February 1 prior to the fall term in which the student intends to begin work toward the degree.

Applicants must have a B.A., B.S., or B.F.A. degree in Art or a related field. Rare exceptions may be made for related experience and a solid art history background.

The application is a dual process between the School of Art and Design and the Office of Admissions. Therefore the applicant also must contact the PSU Office of Admissions for a graduate admission application.

The school application is submitted on-line. For the most up to date information on the MFA program and its application process please visit our web site http://www.pdx.edu/art-design/mfa-admissions-requirements.
