MA/MS in Fine and Studio Arts

The Master of Fine Arts is a low-residency terminal degree that takes two years and totals sixty credit hours. It is intended for professionals who work while studying and for experienced practitioners, and it brings artists and scholars together as one interdisciplinary community. Students choose a concentration in choreography, creative writing, devised performance or directing, among others. The program places artmaking within human ecology, considering historical approaches and the human relationship to natural, social, built and curated surroundings. The structure covers twenty-four months and calls for two consecutive summer residencies of four weeks each, typically late June into July. Beginning in the fall is possible only in unusual circumstances. Wilson College is a private institution in Pennsylvania, and prospective students can request information, arrange a visit or begin an application through the admissions team.
