Students who wish to apply to the five-year dual AB/BFA program must submit a separate application to RISD and to Brown, and also apply to the program. Each admission office will conduct a separate evaluation before joint consideration for the Dual Degree Program. A student may be admitted to RISD only or to Brown only. Because the pioneer class will be small, it is possible that a student will be admitted to both Brown and to RISD, but not to the Dual Degree Program.
All applications must be submitted to the University of Houston Human Resource Department with a Posting Number for a current job opening. These applications are then reviewed by a hiring committee composed of UHCCC managers, teachers and assistant teachers. Phone interviews are scheduled for selected applicants.
