From Pratt Institute

At Pratt, you’re not just a student; you’re part of something bigger. A community of artists, architects, and culture makers. In the heart of New York City, you’ll join a diverse, caring community connected by our belief that creativity is about collaboration, not competition. Our 25-acre Brooklyn campus in historic Clinton Hill is your green oasis. It’s not just where you study; it’s where you live, work, and create alongside fellow students. Beyond classes, it’s a center for connection among students, faculty, and staff.

Just a short subway ride away, Pratt Manhattan Center in Chelsea offers associate degree programs, continuing education classes, and a professional gallery. It’s NYC’s creative pulse right at your fingertips.

For a more intimate setting, consider Pratt Munson College of Art and Design in Utica, NY. Here, you’ll complete your first two years of select Pratt BFA programs before heading to Brooklyn. It’s the perfect launchpad for your creative journey.
