How results are ordered: alphabetically by institution, or by most recently checked when you choose that sort. There is no price ranking, because tuition in different currencies, fee categories and bases (per year, per credit, whole program) is not comparable. A program appears under a subject only through a verified link (dedicated degree, major, concentration or documented pathway). A value we could not verify is shown as “not published”, never as “no”. Items marked Sponsored are paid placements; they never change verification or order. Online programs are not counted as physically located in a state or city, and an institution’s location does not tell you whether it enrols students from your country.

Art education in Massachusetts: what the researched records show

Our researched records for Massachusetts cover 28 institutions (Amherst College, Boston University, Brandeis University, Bridgewater State University and 24 more) with 118 art and design programs taught at a campus here. Fully online programs are not counted as local.

By award: 51 BFAs, 20 MFAs, 2 PhDs and 45 programs with other award titles (BA, MA, BDes or local qualifications). Awards are shown exactly as the institutions title them.

Subjects with a verified link to a program here: Animation, Art Education, Art History, Ceramics, Digital Arts, Drawing, Fashion Design, Film and Video Production and 15 more.

None of the programs here yet carries a program-level accreditation record in our data. That reflects what we have verified so far, not a judgement about the programs.

Admissions: of the programs listed, 32 require a portfolio.

22 programs publish tuition, each shown in its own currency, fee category and basis (per year, per credit or whole program), which is why tuition is never ranked across programs. 3 programs list funding.
