PreCollege Program Details
Classes
With the exception of Architecture and 2D Animation (both of which require students to take Foundation as their 2nd class), students enroll in two classes of their choice. All classes are taught by Pratt faculty and require students to complete assignments outside of class time. Students are in class four days a week (Monday and Thursday + Tuesday and Friday) from 9:30 AM – 5:00 PM.
See Courses and Curriculum for a full list of classes.
Studio Hours
Studio Hours are designated time for all PreCollege students to work on assignments. Residential students are required to attend from 7-8PM, but are not required to stay for the duration unless mandated by their instructor. Studio Hours are monitored by undergraduate Pratt students acting as “Studio Mentors.”
Meals
All meals are served in the cafeteria. Residential students are required to have a meal plan that includes 19 meals per week: breakfast, lunch, and dinner Monday through Friday, and brunch and dinner on weekends.
Museum Visits
Museum visits are required for residential students to explore NYC’s cultural landscape. These visits are chaperoned by “Cultural Engagement Mentors” who help navigate public transit and exhibitions.
Events
Events are required for residential students and include activities such as zine-making workshops, vintage shopping, and Coney Island trips.
Optional Activities
These range from art workshops to film screenings and provide a chance for students to unwind and meet more of the Pratt community. They are not required for residential students.
Free Time
Students can explore NYC, rest, or work on assignments. During this time, students may leave campus unchaperoned.
Curfew
The curfew for residential students is 11 PM, no exceptions. Repeated curfew violations will result in expulsion from the program.
