PIMA Admissions
Applicants must offer a graduate or undergraduate degree from an accredited college or university completed with a grade point average of 3.00 or higher. Applicants must also offer a portfolio of creative work (which may consist of work in any medium including computer software), letters of recommendation, and TOEFL score of at least 550 on the paper-based test or 213 on the computer-based test or 79 on the internet-based test, if required. An interview with a member of the selection committee is strongly recommended.
Applicants must obtain and file an application form with the program director in addition to the regular college admission application; both are available online.
Selection of applicants will be based on a faculty committee review of the following: the applicant’s creative portfolio, evidence of the applicant’s interest in collaborative creative production, letters of reference indicating significant artistic promise, artistic background and experience, and the applicant’s interview (if conducted).
A committee chaired by the Program Director will review all applications and make admission decisions based on the criteria stated above.
Students should note additional requirements found in the sections “Graduate Admission” and “Academic Regulations and Procedures
