The Art Institutes typically operate on a rolling admissions basis, with intakes varying by campus and program. Most locations offer quarterly starts in fall, winter, spring, and summer. Deadlines are usually 2-4 weeks before the term begins, but some competitive programs may have earlier cutoff dates.
Prospective students should check specific campus websites for exact dates, as policies changed after the 2023 closure of multiple locations. Current operating campuses require completed applications, transcripts, and often portfolios or essays. Financial aid deadlines typically align with federal FAFSA timelines, prioritizing applications submitted before March 1 for the following academic year.
