Art Advising

Incoming First Year and Transfer advising takes place through the offices of the CVPA Director of Advising, Kristin Rusboldt ([email protected]).

All second to fourth year level undergraduate art majors are advised by individual faculty advisors in the School of Art. Log in to UNCGenie to find the name of your advisor, to check the course catalogue, or to find your current course schedule.

• BA majors concentrating in Art History and Art Education are advised within their areas.
• BA majors concentrating in Studio Art are advised by the Directors of Undergraduate Studies, Sunny Spillane ([email protected]) and Chris Cassidy ([email protected]).
• BFA majors are advised by advisors in their area of concentration.

Computer Recommendations

The School of Art does not have a laptop requirement, and provides Apple desktop computers in all of the Digital Labs for use by students enrolled in studio courses. Windows and Linux users may have some compatibility issues with the computers in our digital design and photography studios, though they are acceptable. For students that do want to purchase their own computers, laptops are recommended due to their portability and versatility. For students that plan to do more graphically intense work, a desktop computer may make sense. If you are interested in buying an Apple computer please visit the Apple education store.
