Overview

Oberlin College & Conservatory’s Integrated Arts - Bachelor of Arts + Bachelor of Fine Arts program offers two four-year degrees within five years.

Key Facts

Students earn a BA in whatever field they choose, and a BFA in integrated arts. The BFA in integrated arts is designed to support students with a range of artistic practices, drawing upon the strength of Oberlin College’s programs in the practicing arts (theater, dance, creative writing, cinema and media, studio art, and musical studies).

The program allows students to graduate with a pair of degrees that represent both their commitment to the arts alongside the rigor of their academic pursuits.

The university designed this BA+BFA program because it believes painters are better painters when they have also studied animation and photography; filmmakers are better filmmakers when they have also studied drawing and creative writing—and that artists are stronger overall when they are grounded in the intellectual ideas their work represents.

Students in the BA+BFA in Integrated Arts program demonstrate that artists are exceptional holistic thinkers and problem solvers, qualities that are needed now more than ever.
