Certificate of Artistry

The Certificate of Artistry (CA) program offers students intensive, in-depth knowledge and experience in a three-year-plus program of study. Students may choose to study in one of five disciplines: Creative Writing, Dance, Music, Theater or Visual Art.

Students may choose to select more than one discipline, creating a multiple focus, however the study of more than one discipline will be contingent on the assessment of the student’s work, maturity and faculty recommendations.

Curriculum content and course studies are determined for each student based on a placement audition and/or portfolio assessment (to determine skill level). Typically, students will be scheduled for a placement audition after registration is completed.

Quarterly progress reports along with formative and summative semester assessments will be scheduled to evaluate student progress. Year-end evaluation of a student’s work, discipline, skill, creativity and faculty recommendations will determine retention and promotion to the next level of course study. Assessment criteria are based on the National Standards for Arts Education.
