Students

Application to NYSRP is open to upper-level undergraduate and graduate students working in the visual arts in a wide range of disciplines and genres from the participating Association of Independent Colleges of Art and Design (AICAD) member schools.

You are eligible to apply if you are currently enrolled at a participating AICAD school as a 3rd year or 4th year undergraduate student, or as a graduate student majoring in fine arts, related visual arts, photography, graphic arts or design.

You are not eligible to apply if your AICAD school is located in New York City (SVA, Cooper Union, Parsons and Pratt).

Graduate students from AICAD schools who are interested in applying to the NYSRP should confirm their eligibility with their department head prior to beginning the application process.

    College for Creative Studies

    The past few months spent with the New York Studio Residency Program have been some of the most influential and mind bending experiences of my life. Having the greatest opportunity of working among fifteen extremely talented individuals, whilst being guided by some of the most creative thinkers I’ve ever had the pleasure of sharing with, has proved to be the game changer I had been longing for. A semester filled with growth and love. To my studio mates, you’re forever in my thoughts.
