Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) is also known as The University for Creative Careers, as SCAD offers pre-college programs during the summer and throughout the year for high school students of all ages to pursue art and design disciplines while working alongside peers from around the globe.

SCAD offers two engaging pre-college programs for artistic, creative high school teens: SCAD Summer Seminars and SCAD Rising Star

SCAD Summer Seminars

Workshops for current freshmen, sophomore, and juniors in high school
All-access pass to the university’s extensive resources and libraries
Demonstrations, lectures, studio work, and local field trips
Taught by SCAD professors, alumni, or select graduate students
20 or fewer participants in each workshop
Social and cultural activities create an authentic experience of life as a student at SCAD

When? Sessions are offered in June and July at both the SCAD Savannah location and the Atlanta location.

SCAD Rising Star (for credit)

Challenging five-week program awards college credit to rising high school seniors
Students enroll in two college-level classes and have the opportunity to build or enhance their portfolios
SCAD Rising Star participants utilize university spaces — from classrooms and computer labs to studios and production suites
