Don’t just take our word for it, though, hear from our students what they have to say about ULethbridge:
“I did not realize how fantastic [my] program was. Getting your foot in the door, saying that I’m leaving University having curated two exhibitions, done two internships, worked as a research assistant and helped plan a conference is amazing. I’ve had incredible instruction, which makes me feel a lot more confident that when I graduate, I can step out into the world and get a job.”
- Jason Ranaghan, Art History/Museum Studies student
“I chose to pursue Fine Arts at ULethbridge for the small class sizes, which allow for more one-on-one discussion and critique with professors and colleagues. I also choose to study at ULethbridge for the individual studios for senior studio students. My professors have shown incredible support in my artistic practice and development, and have been there for me in times of need. The Fine Arts scholarships I received have created experiences for me and furthered my artistic development in ways that wouldn’t have been possible without the financial support.”
- Leah Evans, Art Studio student
