About the university

About University of the Arts

University of the Arts was a private arts university in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It was known for its focus on visual art, design, music, dance, theater, and related creative fields. The institution was located in Center City Philadelphia and served students in an urban arts environment.

The university offered undergraduate and graduate study across creative disciplines, with strengths in studio-based learning and performance-oriented programs. Its academic profile centered on the arts rather than a broad liberal arts curriculum. Because program offerings changed over time, it is safest to describe the school generally as an arts-focused university with multiple creative majors and graduate options.

  • Arts-focused university centered on creative disciplines
  • Located in Philadelphia in a major urban arts setting
  • Private institution with a specialized creative mission
  • Regionally accredited by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education
  • Transfer and exam credit were subject to institutional review
Transfer credit policy

How Transfer Credits Work at University of the Arts

For transfer and credit-by-exam questions, University of the Arts should be treated as a school where credit acceptance depended on institutional review and official policy rather than a universal guarantee. CLEP and other exam credits are typically evaluated by the registrar or academic records office in the context of the specific program and degree requirements. Students were generally expected to confirm whether a particular exam or transfer course would apply before enrolling or registering.

Students may also have options involving CLEP®, DSST, AP, ACE, or NCCRS credits, depending on UArts's current policies. Not every alternative credit source is automatically accepted, so verify eligibility before completing a course or exam.

Approved credits may count toward general education, major requirements, electives, or other degree requirements depending on the evaluation. University of the Arts transfer credits should therefore be reviewed against the specific degree program.

Transfer tip: Check your transfer credit evaluation and compare accepted credits with your University of the Arts degree requirements before planning additional coursework.
