SCAD Savannah: Learning That Transforms Creativity
By Brittany Howard
Venture on a creative journey where no idea is too big, boundaries are an afterthought and the reward is extraordinary.
Savannah College of Art and Design is an endless blank canvas for artistry of every genre, empowering students to paint life as they see it, and for many, in ways they never imagined.
What makes SCAD unique? It's rooted in a city where global cultures blend beautifully and thrive — the southern gem we know and love, Savannah, Georgia. Here, Savannah's Historic Landmark District becomes your campus. Inspiration surrounds you in every direction, from restored 18th- and 19th-century architecture (many of which were made possible with the help of students) and locally owned shops to a diverse food scene and a vibrant mix of locals, visitors and students from around the world.
Because classes are never in the same building, your creativity will soar as you experience the city in new ways — no two days ever the same. At SCAD, you'll learn and grow beyond the traditional classroom, uncovering how your path and artistry can and will leave a bold mark on the world. You'll admire the focus and drive of your fellow students and professors, and find yourself inspired to go the extra mile. Friendships and collaborations form effortlessly here, in an environment where fearless ideas become international phenomena.
SCAD encourages students to push boundaries and journey beyond the creative norm — to discover that when you think you can’t paint outside the lines, the border simply gets wider. No matter your major, it can be elevated at SCAD. Fashion designer? Become one for the stars. Photographer? Remote documentaries are calling your name. Actor? The university may one day honor you at the SCAD Savannah Film Festival.
The true message? Your story is still being written — and with the Savannah College of Art and Design as your co-author, your journey is destined to be a best seller.
