Description

At Nossi College of Art in Nashville, Tennessee aspiring artists learn the skills needed to refine their craft as well as professional training in marketable visual arts careers.

They also don’t have to worry about tuition increasing once admitted, as Nossi is one of a few schools which has a “fixed tuition” policy.

Programs at Nossi run the gamut from associate’s degrees in commercial art and commercial digital photography to bachelor’s degrees in Graphic Arts, Art and Design, Commercial Illustration and Digital Photography and Video.

Students don’t simply learn artistic and marketable professional skills at Nossi. They are also given the opportunity to network with organizations and individuals in the visual arts industry.

Exhibits, both on campus and throughout the city of Nashville in places like the Nashville International Airport, are part of the Nossi experience.

Student life activities, which mainly consist of professional arts clubs, also give artist-students the chance to meet and collaborate with other students.

For many of Nossi’s programs a portfolio of artistic work is required and is used as the primary source for evaluating and admitting students. The portfolio is also used to evaluate those applying for a merit scholarship.
