UVA's art program?

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of Virginia

<p>Hey guys, I'm planning on majoring in art. I applied for UVA because I'm a Virginia resident and would get instate tuition. I just got accepted, but I am a bit hesitant on committing because I can't really find a whole lot of information about UVA's art program. The website does give a general overview of what is required and what is taught, but my main concern is how good the program is compared to art programs in, let's say, University of Michigan.</p>

<p>Any responses would be much appreciated!</p>

<p>The Art Dept. has an art history subdivision and a studio art subdivision; I assume you’re interested in studio art. There are some cool faculty in Studio Art, and they have recently moved into a snazzy new building. Since you’re instate, why don’t you visit, talk to students and faculty in the program, and take a look at the things they’re doing? That would be the best way of finding out about it.</p>
