AUGUST 29, 2022 — The University of Texas at San Antonio today announced the establishment of the School of Art, a new school within the College of Liberal and Fine Arts (COLFA) created as a result of the university’s integration with the Southwest School of Art (SSA).
The school will be the administrative home for the university’s current undergraduate and graduate degrees in studio art and art history, as well as the minor in museum studies. More than 450 students are enrolled in these programs in the fall, including all students who transferred in from in SSA’s Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) program.
