Spark Admissions works with many students who would like to explore their passion for art, film or music during their time in college. We help them consider whether it is best for them to apply to colleges and universities wholly dedicated to art, film, or music, or to colleges and universities with distinct programs in their given specialties.
Our college consultants are skilled at coaching students to prepare for highly competitive arts, film or music schools. We help our students develop strong applicant strategies and determine where to apply, and guide them through every step of the admissions process to achieve their goals.
We work with students on all aspects of the college preparation, application, and admissions process to provide them the best possible opportunities.

In addition to our fine-arts-specific services, all students who work with Spark Admissions college consultants receive:
We offer four comprehensive college preparation and application packages for families interested in applying to art, film, and music schools.

We’ve worked with many students to pursue their dreams of collegiate studio art, design, film, music, dance, theater, architecture, and more.
