Entrance into the Department of Art’s undergraduate program is selective and competitive. We seek motivated, inquisitive, thoughtful students who wish to expand their knowledge and experience with the visual arts. A complete application with samples of work must be submitted to the Department of Art in consideration for admission into the undergraduate program. The application package will help the review committee evaluate the applicant’s achievements as well as his or her artistic and academic potential.
Graphic Design: Admission into the Graphic Design option is selective and competitive. Students wishing to enter the program must undergo a portfolio review at the beginning of the sophomore year. Students first complete ART 100, ART 101, ART 115, ART 117, ART 120, ART 121 and Art 122 during the freshman year and take ART 225, Introduction to Graphic Design, during the fall term of the sophomore year. ART 225 (offered in the fall only) is designed to prepare students for the portfolio review at the end of fall term. Students will be selected to fill a limited number of openings in the graphic design program based on performance in ART 225 and on the portfolio review. Academic performance in other courses may also be taken into account. (Students transferring to OSU must enroll in ART 225 prior to taking part in the portfolio review. Transfer students should consult with an adviser in the Art Department before registering for OSU courses.) Students who are unsuccessful in gaining admission to the Graphic Design option may reapply one time the following year. Contact the department for specific details.
Fine Arts (painting, printmaking, photography, drawing and sculpture): Admission to the Fine Arts program is selective and competitive. Students wishing to enter the program must undergo a portfolio review. Students should complete ART 100, ART 101, ART 115, ART 117, ART 120, and ART 121 during the freshman year. Academic performance in other courses may also be taken into account. (Transfer students should consult with an adviser in the Art Department before registering for OSU courses.) Students who are unsuccessful in gaining admission to the Fine Art program may reapply one time the following year. Contact the department for additional details.
PCC endeavors to create accurate transfer guides for students; however, requirements may change without notice. Students are responsible for working with PCC advisors and their transfer institution to ensure that their academic plan will meet requirements and timelines.
