Get matched →CCS Bard offers a graduate curatorial program. The graduate curriculum encourages discussion of curatorial issues among students of varied backgrounds and interests, with half of each student's courses taken with their entering class.
Applicants must hold a B.A., B.S., or B.F.A. degree from an accredited U.S. college or university or a baccalaureate or equivalent degree from outside the U.S. An applicant's undergraduate major need not be in art history or studio arts, but applicants must demonstrate broad knowledge of art history and acquaintance with contemporary visual arts.
In addition to standard application materials, international students must provide evidence of English proficiency (e.g., minimum TOEFL score of 550) and proof of financial support through a Certification of Finances, demonstrating sufficient income from all sources to cover expenses for the duration of study.

Awards are renewable for the second year and applied toward tuition each semester.
