What is an In-Person Plus program?

Program-required courses are taught through a combination of in-person and remote delivery. Remote learning may require meeting at a specific time or may not have a specific class time; all weekly interactions and assignments for remote courses are completed through a learning site.

You’re creative. Collaborative. Curious. You see the interesting, beautiful, and unusual details in the world around you and express them through different mediums. Vermont State University’s Studio Arts Concentration can help you expand your perspective, portfolio, and skills to pursue a successful and fulfilling creative career in the fine arts.

We are here to answer your questions about Vermont State University.
