WHAT THE COLLEGES SAY

Syracuse University, College of Visual and Performing Arts

"I enjoyed seeing your students work, which is exceptional. I was energized by the quality of their portfolios. I was also impressed by how serious, receptive and down to earth your students all were. You've created a wonderful thing at The Huntington School of Fine Arts, and I wish there was something like that available to me when I was in high school. Your students are well prepared to study art at the college level and it is refreshing to see the caliber of work done at your school."

— Suzanne Proulx, Admissions

NYU

"The Program at HSFA gives the students a sense of the discipline camaraderie necessary for the development of an artist community. They get the basis of artistic skills and exposure to excellent staff and role models who nurture their talents."

— Linda Vega, Undergraduate Art Admissions

Bennington College

"We are always excited to receive applications from The Huntington School of Fine Arts. We know that the students will have had excellent technical instruction and undergone rigorous critiques. More important, Huntington students have been taught to see themselves as artists- they talk, think and make connections with other disciplines to their art. That's rare in high school students."

— Ben Jones, Dean of Admissions

Chicago, The School of the Art Institute

"Huntington School of Fine Arts is one of the few schools that are still training artists in the classic foundation tradition. Students trained under Joe Mack are positioned perfectly for the advanced study at the college level. The individual care the students receive is impressive, but the college preparation is what makes The Huntington School of Fine Arts invaluable to any high school artist."

— Paul Coffey, Director, Undergraduate Division

Boston University

"My recent visit was exciting and rewarding. The students I met with were self-possessed and obviously totally engaged by the work that they do. There are few places that can engender this type of response in high school students. I certainly understand why many schools of art find your program to be a positive source of students."

— Stuart Baron, Director

Cornell University

"As always, we look forward to receiving applications from your students."

— Elizabeth Cutter, Director
Student Services and Admissions

University of Michigan

"It does Joseph Mack much credit to have been an important source of inspiration and instruction in visual art development. It is always a pleasure to see art students with the outstanding preparation he has given."
