Parsons Pre-College Academy
If you have a passion for the arts, then Parsons' Pre-College Academy may be right for you. Our classes meet on Saturday mornings for 11 weeks in the fall and spring, with students divided into elementary, middle-school, and high-school groups.
Here you will develop you skills in drawing, painting, animation design, portfolio development, product design and graphic design. We also offer a Certificate Program for students in grades 9-12 who plan to apply to colleges of art and design. Participants entering the 12th grade can also enroll in a portfolio course to prepare for college admission.
In the summer, the Academy offers two-week long intensive courses. In addition, pre-college students age 16 or older may also enroll in Parsons Summer Intensive Studies programs in either New York or Paris for college credit.
Pre-College Academy sharpens your natural talent and supplements your school's arts education. And enrolling in the program means meeting new friends who share your interests, and your point of view.
