As we all know, there are countless colleges and universities offering art majors across the country, so how do you choose a school that suits you? Today I will take you through the classification of colleges:
School selection General Principles
1. The unified examination scores are very important. If your unified examination scores reach the ranking of a school in previous years, then you can choose multiple key universities to apply for in the out-of-province admissions examination. Because you will be able to attend at least two schools in the province.
2. In most cases, public schools are preferred. Because in the higher education in Eastern countries, public universities are overwhelmingly stronger than private universities. Public universities have huge advantages from the country in policy, funding, scientific research and other aspects. Only in very few cases or in very specific fields, some private universities may have an advantage, such as the media major of China Communication University of Science and Technology Nanguang College, the animation and game major of Jilin Animation Institute, and the film and television major of the School of Modern Creative Media of Beijing Film Academy.
Seven types of colleges and universities that art candidates can apply to
1. Art colleges (including music colleges, fine arts colleges, dance colleges, film and television media colleges, etc.)
2. Key Normal Universities
3. 985, ?211 Engineering Universities
4. General Provincial Universities
5. General Provincial Colleges
6. Private (or independent college) professional art colleges
7. Art vocational colleges
Art colleges
This type of colleges The school mainly includes 9 music conservatories, 9 fine arts academies, 6 art academies, Shandong Institute of Arts and Crafts, Beijing Dance Academy, Beijing Film Academy, Central Academy of Drama, Chinese Academy of Drama, Shanghai Theater Academy, Communication University of China, and Zhejiang Communication University , Shanghai Institute of Visual Arts, etc., as well as art majors from Minzu University of China, Donghua University, Jiangnan University, Suzhou University, Jingdezhen Ceramics University, Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology, Tianjin University of Technology, Zhejiang University of Science and Technology, Beijing Institute of Graphic Arts and other institutions.
In addition, the Harbin Conservatory of Music (based on the Harbin Normal University Conservatory of Music), the Zhejiang Conservatory of Music (based on the Hangzhou Conservatory of Music), and the Inner Mongolia Art Institute have just been established in recent years. ?(formerly the Art College of Inner Mongolia University?).
Usually, this type of school is considered to be a gathering place for top art students. Many candidates think that their level is not enough, and it is not cost-effective to give up the application without giving it a try.
The classification of majors in the School of Art is also relatively detailed, relatively low in comprehensiveness, and relatively high in professional research. This is also the difference from other types of schools. This type of school is suitable for candidates with good artistic foundation and accomplishment, who also hope to engage in art-related jobs after graduation.
For example, Wang Xu, an arboriculture student, received certificates from the Beijing Film Academy and the Central Academy of Drama; Wang Haoxiang, an arboriculture student, won the third place in the country in the creative planning direction of the Literature Department of the Beijing Film Academy:
Key Normal Universities
Beijing Normal University, Capital Normal University, Northeast Normal University, Nanjing Normal University, Central China Normal University, Hunan Normal University, South China Normal University, Southwest University, Shaanxi Normal University, Harbin Normal University Universities, Fujian Normal University, Shandong Normal University, etc. are either part of the 211 Project or have doctoral degree authorization points in arts.
In addition, the provincial normal universities in some provinces are also very good universities, including Tianjin Normal University, Hebei Normal University, Shanxi Normal University, Inner Mongolia Normal University, Liaoning Normal University, Shenyang Normal University, and Shanghai Normal University. , Anhui Normal University, Hangzhou Normal University, Zhejiang Normal University, Jiangxi Normal University, Guangxi Normal University, Hainan Normal University, Sichuan Normal University, Chongqing Normal University, Northwest Normal University, Xinjiang Normal University, etc.
This type of school usually recruits mostly students from the province based on the results of the unified examination, organizes fewer school examinations, and recruits fewer places from outside the province.
Of all the majors in the university, normal education is the main one, but there are also some other directions. Those who graduate from the normal education program will have a secondary teacher qualification certificate. The normal education program is more focused on theoretical teaching, so the requirements for cultural courses for art students in the college entrance examination are also relatively high. , usually admitted based on comprehensive scores. Moreover, key and provincial normal universities opened art majors very early, second only to famous art colleges, and even surpassing some art colleges. At the same time, it has also obtained the master's and doctoral authorization points for art-related majors approved by the Ministry of Education relatively early, which is more conducive to further study.
This type of school is usually the first choice for candidates who are strong in professional courses and cultural courses. Candidates are required to integrate professional culture.
For example, Zhu Ming, an arboriculture student, received a certificate from Beijing Normal University:

Double First-Class, 985, 211 Engineering University
There are 112 Project 211 universities and 39 Project 985 universities across the country, and more than 90% of them offer art majors. Among them, several universities are recommended, such as Tongji University, Sichuan University, Zhejiang University, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Wuhan University of Technology, Chongqing University, etc., which are among the top ones in terms of artistic strength.
It is worth noting that the artistic strength of several agricultural and forestry colleges is indeed relatively weak, such as Northeast Agricultural University, Nanjing Agricultural University, Sichuan Agricultural University, Huazhong Agricultural University, etc. As well as some 211 projects in remote areas, such as Tibet University, Xinjiang University, Lanzhou University, Ningxia University, etc., their artistic strength is also relatively weak.
Although the main majors of this type of school are not in art, their comprehensive nature also brings many advantages to art majors. Moreover, it has natural advantages in some majors that combine craftsmanship, such as environmental design, art and technology, product design, digital media art, etc.
Most of the students in this type of school are elites, and most of them have international student schools and doctoral schools. There are a variety of courses for students to choose from, so graduates will not hang themselves in one major.
For art students, social skills are absolutely important. Without the help of a group of powerful friends, it is difficult for an artist to shine.
This type of university is suitable for candidates who do not want to engage in the pure art industry in the future or who want to engage in art management, interpretation marketing, or open art training institutions, art troupe management, etc.
For example, Zhang Xingxin, an arboriculture student, obtained a certificate from Chongqing University:
General provincial universities
Northern University of Technology? (in Beijing), Tianjin University of Science and Technology , Tianjin University of Technology, Hebei University, Yanshan University, Shanxi University, Dalian University of Technology, Henan University, Qingdao University, Qilu University of Technology, Anhui Engineering University, Nanjing Forestry University, Zhejiang University of Technology, Guangdong University of Technology, Guangzhou University, Shenzhen University, Wuhan Textile University, Hubei University of Technology, Hunan University of Technology, Central South University of Forestry and Technology, Xi'an University of Architecture and Technology, Xi'an Engineering University, Shaanxi University of Science and Technology, Xi'an University of Technology, etc.
This type of school is usually the same as normal universities. Most of them recruit students through the unified examination, and some recruit students individually. This type of university is only one level lower than normal universities, but there are also many famous teachers joining the teaching staff, and the quality of students is higher. Such schools, like normal universities, need professional and cultural integration.
Here are several provincial universities with strong artistic strength recommended, such as Dalian University of Technology, Zhejiang University of Technology, Guangdong University of Technology, Wuhan Textile University, Hubei University of Technology, Hunan University of Technology, Shaanxi University of Science and Technology, etc. They are well-known throughout the country in some subdivisions, such as the clothing and costume design and costume performance majors of Wuhan Textile University and Dalian University of Technology, packaging art design of Hunan University of Technology, and furniture design of Central South University of Forestry and Technology.
For example, arboriculture students Su Yirun and Li Yunya obtained certificates from Chongqing University of Posts and Telecommunications:
General comprehensive provincial colleges
Zhengzhou Light Industry College, Shanxi Media College , Zhongyuan Institute of Technology, Fujian Institute of Engineering, Hunan Business College, Hunan Institute of Technology, Hefei College, Nanjing Xiaozhuang College, Chengdu College, Zhejiang Institute of Science and Technology, Changsha College, Chongqing Three Gorges College, Chongqing College of Arts and Sciences, Shijiazhuang College, Xi'an College of Arts and Sciences, Kunming University, Guiyang University, etc.
This type of school is usually the same as normal universities and provincial universities. Most of them recruit students through the unified examination, and some recruit students individually. Such schools also need professional and cultural integration. For this type of college, it is best to choose one from a developed city, or at least one from a provincial capital city. Several colleges worth recommending: Zhengzhou University of Light Industry, Shanxi University of Communication, and Zhongyuan Institute of Technology. For example, Li Yuke, an arboriculture student, received a certificate from Xiangnan University:
"Bamboo Dance" ------- Shao Rong
"Water Lily" ---- Jia Pengfang
"Nocturne" ------ Pure Music
