| /Master of Fine Arts Program
The Master of Fine Arts is a two-year, full-time professional degree in the practice of art, preparing students to pursue careers as professional artists. The small size of MFA program (about 16 students) allows for an exceptionally individual experience that includes a spacious, private studio and the opportunity to gain classroom experience in undergraduate art courses either as a teaching assistant or a studio assistant. These departmental awards are awarded on a competitive basis during the admission process and can include generous stipends as well as all or part of a student's tuition. No special application is necessary for these awards and all applicants are automatically considered.
For visits to the Roski School MFA program please see the information at Visit Opportunities on this site.
Applicants must hold a BFA, BA, or equivalent, from an accredited undergraduate school and submit both a USC Graduate Application (http://www.usc.edu/admission/graduate) as well as a Roski School Supplemental Application (http://roski.usc.edu). The intended area of primary interest must be indicated and the applicant must provide a DVD or 20 scanned images on a CD, appropriately labeled and dated (see MFA application).
The Roski School Supplemental Application and materials should be postmarked by February 1 and sent directly to the USC Roski School of Fine Arts. Applicants wishing to have their portfolio materials returned should include a STAMPED, self-addressed envelope or mailing container.
