Preparatory course
Accademia del Giglio has a proven track record in organizing training courses aimed at helping foreign students learn strategies and tips which can be very useful to pass the admission Exam to the major Academies of Fine Arts in Italy, such as Florence, Brera, Carrara, Naples, Rome, Urbino.
Admission exams take place every year in late September or early October, but please do not forget that application deadlines for most academies are normally between July and August. So, if you wish to enroll, we strongly recommend you complete all the application procedures before the deadline established by each academy. To find out the deadline of each academy please contact us.
Our preparatory courses are held all year round and they are meant to prepare students to attend their academic studies and assist them in choosing the major they wish to take (Painting, Sculpture, Decoration, Design or Graphics). During classes students will take mock exams, they will focus on the drawing of the nude human figure, they will have conversations in Art History, they will hone their artistic skills and they will apply themselves to any activities which may be deemed as necessary for training for the Admission Exam. At the end of the course students will feel confident and ready to sit the tests.
Accademia del Giglio staff can also assist students in providing them with all the necessary information regarding the bureaucratic and administrative aspects of the application procedures to the Academies of Fine Arts.
