It is advisable that students declare a major before the beginning of the junior year.

Application forms for the art major can be obtained in the Registrar’s office. These should be filled out and returned to the Department Chair.

Each application will be carefully considered by the entire Department at the time of application. While it is College policy that no department may decline a major, the Art Department considers it very beneficial to advise prospective majors of the suitability of its program for their needs.

Upon declaring a major, students should choose an advisory within the Department and carefully structure their course of study with the help of their advisor. Guidelines for course selection and a complete description of requirements for studio majors are available at the Art Department Office.
