Hello, I am an international student looking to transfer into Pratt but I'm very confused about the whole process (and transferring in general)

Currently, looking at Pratt's website there's no mention of BFA transfers being open for 2025? Does this mean that no BFA transfer applications will be accepted in 2025?

I am confused as to how credits transfer exactly, are there any specific credit requirements? (Like you must have done painting or art history etc) that I need to fulfil?

For Pratt and other schools, if I am required to complete certain specific credits to join at the year I want, can I complete online or other short term courses to make up this lack? If I can do online courses, what courses are accepted by Pratt and even other institutes?

I know for international students we have to send our transcripts to WES or NACES to get it verified, I've asked them the same question as to what sort of courses will they evaluate for my application, but haven't got a reply.

Hello! I am 27 and have been thinking of going back to school for photography. But feel slightly old and not sure if it's the best choice. I have some experience, and my portfolio is kind of everywhere. Learning pn my own and building a career with no educational background feels like im walking on unstable grounds. (That could just be some self doubt) I really want to make this a career and do more with the art in my life. Is it possible to go back for this BFA? I'm already living I NYC and have to work of course, so im not sure if I can be full time. Any input or advice would be appreciated. Feel very much at a crossroads.

I am a prospective student looking into Pratt's M.S program in Sustainable Environmental Systems. To give context, I graduated from Boston University with a bachelors in Economics and a minor in Environmental analysis & policy. I am very interested in city planning, but recently have been found myself leaning more towards a sustainability-focused track(Particularly in the floodplain resilience and green infrastructure). Has anyone had experience with the S.E.S program at Pratt? It looks very cool and progressive but I'm worried it may not be very rigorous compared to other more reputable programs in the city.

I’m a college student looking into transferring into Pratt’s 2D Animation dept but other than their own website I’m having trouble trying to find anything online detailing the quality of the program.

I’m very interested in this, so any and all feedback is greatly appreciated. Thank you

Like actually so fucking bored I know you people are hiding... the club will happen... it will be lit idgaf

I want to transfer out of my major and I was wondering what the majors in the title are like? I'm torn between the two. Things like what are the classes like for them? Will I have to buy a lot of things after joining? Computer specs? What do you learn in game design specifically? Just any info on the majors from someone whos already in them would be cool :)

Hi guys! I’m planning on attending pratt for the 2025-2026 year and I’m concerned about the transfer scholarship amount. On the calculator website, it says we’re only awarded 18k maximum, split between four years. That’s quite low. Can any transfers tell me how much they received in financial aid/ scholarships.

Please forgive my ignorance - I did the Pratt Summer Pre-College many moons ago and distinctly remember seeing the award winning Pratt Cats in the engine room and wandering about campus. Today, I've returned as Pratt Faculty and though wowed by the renewed East Plaza renovation, am floored by the conspicuous absence of the Pratt Cats. Were they adopted/rehoused?

Hi, I'm applying to transfer into the architecture program next year and I'm currently setting up my portfolio to submit with my application. I was wondering if anyone would let me see the portfolio they applied with and got accepted with. If not then any tips or advice would also be appreciated.

Hi I'm interested in the architecture program but also was wondering if it's possible to learn about different medias such as Fashion or animation whether it's clubs or like electives I understand it's a weird question but Pratt has such a diverse set of arts and schools it'd be amazing to learn more than what is required

Hi!

I'm planning to apply at the Pratt School of Information for M.S. in IXD.

I'm a 2024 B.Des graduate from NIFT. CGPA: 8.7/10 (3.5/4.0 (?))

I took a break after my graduation and now it is hard to find a job.

I'm feeling really overwhelmed while filling the application form. The process for a fee waiver went over my head. I've already started questioning whether is it even worth applying for?

I would really appreciate if a fellow Indian can candidly tell me about their experience at Pratt. I also need someone to help me with the application. I swear I wouldm't bother you much, I just need some guidance and motivation. I feel like giving up.

I know this question is a bit all over the place, but so is my state of mind right now. Thanks for bearing it.

Please help.

Thanks

Someone told me I could rent a machine, does anyone know how/ where to get it from? I don’t think it’s in the library catalog

I’ve checked everywhere but there’s no area to put this information I’ve graduated and don’t have a record and anytime I email Pratt they very dismissive pls help I want to start in spring

I'm trying to submit an application for transfer fall 2025 and this keeps on poping up even though I already filled that section. Is the website experiencing an error?

I'm planning to be a commuter student and get the parking permit to park on campus. However I read that parking is first come first served. One day I have class at 8 am and then another day at 12. I am afraid that I'm going to drive 2 hours to campus and then not be able to find parking. How often do the lots get completely full?

Thanks

Anybody have experience with the cell leader position at Pratt and Whitney? I hear horror stories. Working with management and the union on the blue collar side. I always see jobs open. Was thinking about applying.

Hello! ive been called recently to look into going to school, im a 26 y/o DACA recipient and id really like to go to art school. I currently live in NY and would like to go to Pratt but I really wouldn't be able to afford it. im having trouble finding schollarships that are compatible with PRATT and also im not a high school student or recently graduated and that seems to be most of the scholarships im seeing. I graduated high school in 2016. Anyone here currently at Pratt with scholarships and also has DACA? what's ur experience? or does anyone know where I can find scholarships compatable with Pratt and DACA students? thanks!

Hi! I'm starting the digital arts/3d animation mfa this fall and was wondering if you can get by mostly using the Pratt computers or if it's necessary to have a good laptop. I have a old-ish PC right now and am debating getting a macbook.

Does anyone have a link to the Pratt discord and graduate discord? Thanks

Hi all,

I'm thinking about taking the continuing studies graphic design program at Pratt Institute in Manhattan and was wondering if anyone has taken it and what their experience was like?

I'm mostly curious about the course load. I'm able to multitask well and manage a heavy workload at work and while I was still in college but I want to know what it was like as I'm considering taking the classes while I stay at my job, most likely transitioning into only a part time position and was wondering if the course was manageable enough for me to keep working at my job.

Thanks!

Hey everyone, I'm an upcoming Freshman and I'm just curious is Christmas/holiday break really just 1 week? I feel like most colleges are 2-4 weeks. Thank you.

Hi,

I want to apply to a Fine Arts graduate degree in January and I was wondering what I should pay attention to while creating my portfolio. I'm just wondering if I should choose 20 of my works and focus on the finished product or maybe treat them more like projects and focus on the process and basically describe it.

All answers appreciated I'm a little bit confused.

Are there any subjects that are required to be taken in high school to be able to apply for the undergrad program.
