SFAI’s internationally regarded MFA programs reflect a legacy of studio based practice that challenge students to consider the conceptual, contemporary, traditional, and theoretical practices of art. Admission to the MFA program is very competitive. All applications are reviewed by the Graduate Faculty Review Committee in each area of study. The admissions process is highly selective and involves a personal interview for those candidates who have been recommended as finalists for admission consideration. In selected cases, applicants to the MFA program may be referred to the Post-Baccalaureate Certificate Program if not accepted to the MFA.
Programs are offered in Design and Technology, Film, New Genres, Painting, Photography, Printmaking, and Sculpture (including ceramics). Students may also apply to pursue a dual MA/MFA degree option in History and Theory of Contemporary Art.
