Drawing and Painting Full-Time Program
The Full-Time Drawing | Painting program includes an extensive study plan that incorporates all the mechanisms of traditional academics related to drawing and painting in order to provide the student with all the aesthetic and expressive resources to become a professional artist. Students have 6 to 8 hours of guided study from Monday to Thursday (from 10 am to 1pm AND from 2 to 5 pm + evening sessions from 5:30/6 to 7:30/8 pm) and seminars on Friday (from 10 am to 1pm AND from 2 to 5 pm).

Methodology
The Full-time Drawing | Painting Program consists of a series of exercises that the student must complete at their own pace.
Every day, students receive individual feedback from a different teacher who visits their workspace. This personalized feedback session, known as a critique, is tailored to ensure that students understands the concepts taught at each stage of their learning. The focus is on correcting, modifying, or enhancing all aspects suggested by the tutor in the most effective manner possible.
At the end of each term, the students receive an individual, personalised final critique attended by all their teachers. Five general areas are evaluated: attendance, performance, effort, attitude and progress. A final average grade is then determined based on these criteria.
The time that each student spends on each assignment, and consequently on finishing a course, is totally individual, and may be different from other students. However, as a standard guideline, a full-time student typically completes the Drawing | Painting Program within a timeframe ofthree academic years.
The minimum enrolment time for standard courses is always one term [3 months].
Schedule: Monday to Friday from 10am to 1pm and from 2pm to 5pm. Evening sessions: Monday to Thursday from 5:30/6pm to 7:30/8pm (1 obligatory session).

The non-refundable deposit corresponds to 10% of the total amount of the course enrolled by the student. The rest of the registration fee must be paid by the dates specified via email when confirming the place at the rate of one payment per registered term, and always in advance. If the non-refundable deposit is not paid, the place will remain automatically available for another student.
Students may request refunds (except the non-refundable deposit amount) which will be determined in accordance with the school's internal policy. Any change to be applied after the student's place has been confirmed will require the payment of an administrative fee.
