questions and answers


How do I get an advisor?

Once we have your name and records on file, you will be assigned an advisor and will be notified by mail by the Arts and Letters staff. Your Fine Arts advisor will be one of our full time Fine Arts faculty members. Advisors are trained to provide students with accurate and up-to-date information regarding the BA degree requirements and Fine Arts concentrations. Fine Arts students are expected to consult regularly with their advisor.



How do I access my IUCARE?
http://insite.indiana.edu/

An IUCARE audit report provides current information regarding academic requirements you must complete and progress toward your B.A. You must use a computer to access your IUCARE and have a four-digit PIN number. Go to the above link and fill in the requested information.



What are Sophomore and Junior level reviews?


Sophomore Review

After each student completes three of the required 200-level sequence of studio courses, the entire studio fine arts faculty will conduct a review of the student's work. The faculty will review a portfolio that includes examples of work from foundations and the 200-level. Students will not be present for the review. A few weeks after the review has been completed, the student will be provided with a program assessment, including recommendations for continued study and suggestions for discipline concentrations.
In addition, students transferring into the program who have had two-years of coursework as a fine arts major at another college or university also must have a Sophomore review. This also applies to students with a two-year degree from a junior or community college that want to pursue the BA in Fine Arts at IU Southeast.


Junior Review

After Fine Arts majors complete their junior level (86+ hours), the department will conduct an assessment of their progress toward their senior exhibition and graduation. This will include a review of visual work in the designated concentration areas, the student’s development in their work, and the application of their studies to broader professional goals.



What are Introductory and Senior Art Theory?

Freshman Fine Arts majors must enroll in A201 (Introductory Art Theory) during their enrollment in foundations (F100, F101, and F102). This course is designed to introduce beginning students to contemporary theories, terminology, and media used in the fine arts. Senior Art Theory emphasizes the study of art theory and ideas as it relates to the student's own creative work.
