FACT SHEET

Winchester School of Art

Winchester, England


An honors degree college in a country setting just one hour from London, the Winchester School of Art has structured a diversified, yet specialized, art program for students that parallels studies at FIT. A typical week includes studio practice, print design, painting, nature studies, seminars on 19th and 20th century art and design, the development of a specialized subject, and visiting lecturers. Accessibility to London’s many museums helps in researching design projects. By the end of the semester, students have a collection of work for their portfolios. Students can earn 15 major area credits; liberal arts courses are not offered. Students pay FIT tuition and fees.
