Schedule a Guided Interview

Becoming eligible for acceptance to Living Arts usually begins with talking to an Advisor.

The Living Arts Admissions advising team is qualified to help you explore your potential as a Creativity Professional. With 23 years of guiding graduates along career pathways, we're serious (and qualified) about creativity career planning. The steps that follow might prove valuable to you.

Phone +1.919.488.8504 in the US to speak to an Advisor. Ask questions and determine if you might benefit from taking the next step—participating in a Guided Interview. You'll learn that we conduct a scheduled Guided Interview in person or via Skype or phone. During the Guided Interview we'll begin a connection that includes exploring your potential for success in the studio arts. We'll look at your creative work (or lack of work), seek to understand your ambitions, dreams and experience. You'll, of course, have questions and will want to find out just why so many graduates have found pathways to higher rewards as creativity professionals.

Should you explore a BA Degree or a Professional Intensive program?

While the focus here is on building studio level know-how, Living Arts wants you to begin your education with a practical career plan. You have options. If you're a recent high school graduate seeking a higher education experience, Living Arts delivers an unique THREE year BA Degree. This shorter program replaces the traditional four year BA Degree. The difference is ... only the calendar time is different. The Living Arts BA is delivered within a similar number of hours. Classtime simply runs with fewer calendar breaks. For example, there is no lengthy summer break period.

Best of all, the THREE year BA Degree saves real money through big savings on living costs and no fourth year tuition. And, the graduate heads for the job market one year sooner than the traditional student! Plan to learn more program features and investment value options by connecting with an Advisor.

The PID—Professional Intensive Diploma program series can be completed in 18 or fewer months. This can be the valuable program selection for the adult learner who wants targeted know-how for today's higher demand digital jobs. This directed learning experience becomes even more valuable through studio level practice. Your Advisor will provide added details.
