MICA’s PreCollege Art & Design Residency Program offers rising high school juniors and seniors college- level art experience. Take part in a transformative experience with creative-minded peers, and learn new skills that help you explore the “why” behind your art. As a junior or senior, you can earn up to three college credits through this program.
PreCollege focuses on academic rigor and personal creative growth, as well as experience practicing with a college level curriculum. The program is a combination of live instruction, independent studio time, and a variety of community events, workshops and artist talks. Students will receive ongoing support and feedback from MICA faculty and Undergraduate teaching assistants, as well as build a community of peer support through critiques and collaboration. In-person costs include tuition, fees, housing, and meals. Art materials and travel expenses are not included in the cost of the program.
