With only 12 new students accepted each year, the size of the graduate program enables the faculty to work directly with each degree candidate. In addition to this individual attention, graduate students in studio art also enjoy spacious, private studios with 24/7 access during the entire two years of their program. MFA candidates select a choice of focus from painting, ceramics, sculpture, installation, photography, intermedia, video, and electronic arts. The MFA program culiminates in a thesis exhibition of student work in the Mills College Art Museum, open to art critics, gallery owners, and the general public.
