apply before our early deadline!

We’re a small yet highly-ranked art and design school, so you’re sure to get a personalized education. At Lesley, you’ll come into your own as an artist.

We’re also part of a university with a liberal arts college, so you can develop industry-specific experience with the broader perspective of a liberal arts educational experience. Study abroad or enroll in an accelerated dual bachelor’s/master’s degree program. Participate in internships and apprenticeships, enabling you to connect theory to practice and develop your professional self.

At Lesley, you can get your BFA in:

Animation & Motion Media / Digital Filmmaking / Fine Arts / Game Design & Immersive Technologies / Graphic Design / Illustration / Interactive Design / Photography / Visual Effects (VFX) / Visual Narrative

We also offer a BA in Art and 25 liberal arts majors. Combine your BFA with a second major or one of our 45+ minors—in art & design or a liberal arts subject—to expand your career opportunities.

Applying to Lesley University couldn't be easier. There's no fee, and if you apply by our February 15 preferred deadline, you'll have an answer within three weeks. 1. View the application requirements for U.S. students or for international students.
