This degree provides a general studio arts foundation curriculum for students interested in transferring into a baccalaureate degree program in Visual Arts. Emphasis is placed on drawing and design with opportunities to explore painting, sculpture, ceramics, printmaking, photography and computer art. Survey courses in art history are integrated into the program. This program meets the SUNY Transfer Path for Art Studio. With completion of the associate degree (courses with “C” or higher), students will achieve junior status when transferring into a related program at the SUNY four-year institution.
 
A successful portfolio review is required at the completion of the final semester, to be reviewed and accepted by the portfolio review committee for the granting of the A.S. degree.
 
 Students are admitted on a rolling basis, fall and spring.
