New this year, SMFA is partnering with Northeastern University to offer a BFA and MFA in Studio Art. As part of this collaboration, students in the SMFA/Northeastern degree programs take studio art courses at the Museum School and academic courses at Northeastern. As a degree student at the SMFA, you'll receive your degree from Northeastern.

Northeastern is a private research university located just blocks from the Museum School and a leader in interdisciplinary research, urban engagement, and the integration of classroom learning with real-world experience.

As a student-centered university, Northeastern offers you a broad variety of support programs and resources that facilitate the many ways you can achieve academic success.
