Master of Fine Art with concentration in Photography
U.S News and World Report rating of 3.7, number 15
Why I am interested in the school, and what looks unique about the program:
(From Pratt's website) "Pratt is not a school of a specific type of work. Although the students apply in an area of emphasis, the program is designed to encourage a wide variety of interdisciplinary and cross- disciplinary study. It is our goal to encourage students to develop their vision in ways they could not have anticipated before arriving at Pratt. The Faculty, all of whom are practicing artists, are incredibly generous in their interactions with students, bringing with them an interest in conceptual ideas along with a respect for the achievement of craft.
Degree requirements include nine credits in art criticism/history and six credits in the liberal arts. Twenty-seven elective credits may be used for a wide variety of interdisciplinary, studio, or technical courses in any graduate level studio class in the Institute.
All full time students pursuing a Master of Fine Arts degree and are taking 12 credits are guaranteed a studio for four consecutive semesters.
Full time photography majors pursuing a Master of Fine Arts degree may utilize semi-private darkrooms."
I don't want to stay specifically concentrated in photography in grad school, so the way Pratt's program is run is appealing to me. I like that they encourage learning from other disciplines, and require a good amount of elective credits.

Why I am interested in the school, and what looks unique about the program:
(From Hunter's website): "Graduateprograms are wide-ranging, affordable, acclaimed and student-centered. They combine extraordinary faculty; real-world training in the heart of Manhattan; an exceptionally diverse, stimulating student population; uncommon respect for your abilities and your time; and unparalleled support for your goals. All at an exceptional value."
I like that this school offers an art studio degree, instead of a degree concentrated in photography. This school is extremely competitive, but I like that it is prestigious because I know I will be getting a great education. I love that it is "affordable" and in New York, which I thought were mutually exclusive attributes until I did this research.
