How to Apply
Beginning in Fall 2020, Watkins College of Art will merge with Belmont University to become Watkins College of Art at Belmont University. As of March 16, 2020, Watkins is no longer accepting applications for Watkins College of Art at Belmont University; however, those who applied prior to March 15, 2020 will still be processed for admissions decisions.
