    西北太平洋艺术学院(Pacific Northwest College of Art,缩写:PNCA)成立于1909年,位于美国俄勒冈州波特兰市,是一所私立美术设计学校,开设有本科学士(BFA)项目和研究生学位(MFA和MA)项目,目前有500+名学生。此处,该校还在当地社区开展艺术设计继续教育课程。

    学校历史

    西北太平洋艺术学院成立于1909年,当时是作为波特兰艺术博物馆的一部分,成立之初学校被命名为博物馆艺术学院(Museum Art School)。1981年,学校更名为西北太平洋艺术学院(Pacific Northwest College of Art),以从校名上来反应学校与博物馆相互独立的关系。

    1998年,学校搬迁至现在位于波特兰皮尔区的校区。2012年学校宣布将在波特兰老校区的511联合教学楼集中授课,在2013年8月份建成了第一栋学生公寓,名为艺术公寓(Arthouse)。学校在2013年11月份从波特兰发展委员会寻求到一笔贷款用于翻新,2015年翻新工程完成,2015年2月份,新校区开课。*(2)

    学生评价

    Overall Experience: Pacific Northwest College of Art has a great variety of classes. Depending on your major, you have a lot of classes to choose from and it's likely that you will have to take all of the classes that are provided for your major throughout your 4 years. The classes are very interesting too, and the professors know so much about their topics. They truly love what they teach, and that inspires me to learn so much more. All my classes that I've taken have been small. It's a small school, so there's only about 10 kids per class. I like the small classes because the students can really engage with each other better, and help one another out. The style of the classes is usually Socratic,where the students and the professors engages with one another and ask many questions and learn from one another. Most of my studio classes are mainly individual taught, and the professors help each student find their own unique style. It was very different from how I was taught in high school, but these teaching styles have really helped me succeed. I didn't do well in high school for the lack of teacher engagement, but now I feel so privledged to have professors that truly want to see you succeed.

    Overall Experience: I just completed my first year at Pacific Northwest College of Art, so I don't know very much about the alumni network. But I do know that the school is very vocal when it comes to job and internship prospects. They have many workshops at the school that teach you how to put your name out there in the art world, and how to get a really great job from that. I've even learned how to become my own entrepreneur through those workshops, and I'm so grateful that my school has them. There's a dedicated classroom in the school that announces internships, job applications, and has an attendant that works around the clock to help you. The school emails you whenever there's an alumni coming back to discuss jobs, or a lecture from an employer, or a lecture for your own enjoyment. I've been to many throughout my school year, and all of them have been helpful!

    Health & Safety: The safety at my school is very important. PNCA rests in the heart of the city, so there are a lot of precautions when it comes to safety. There's security at the entrance of the school, and if it gets late at night the security will escort you back your place when needed. I definitely carry pepper spray with me everywhere when I go to school. The dorms are 5 blocks away from the school and it's situated on a park, so walking on the park at night alone is not the best idea. There's a lot of unpredictable homeless people around the area, so it's necessary to have help on speed dial. But the school takes safety as top priority.

    Campus Housing: The housing at Pacific Northwest College of Art is okay. The price is way too much though. It's understandable with the value of the environment and how much you get amenity-wise, but it's difficult to live there without having a job on the side to cover the extra cost. And being an art student, it's really difficult to keep that dorm paint free. I remember spilling ink a few times on the floor and having to pay for the damage. I love the amenities in the dorm, they have a working washer and dryer, bathtub, kitchen, and a large closet. Plus it's only 5 blocks from the school! I know I'll be spending my four years in the dorm because of the convenience. If I were to move out, the most affordable living would be at least 45 minutes out of the way. The process of getting a dorm was rather difficult because they had just updated their new website, so it was definitely difficult at first. Especially with the financial aid. But everything worked out fine! I love the dorms, I just wish they were a little bit more affordable for me.

    Diversity: Portland is overwhelmingly white, but the school is a little more diverse.

    Campus Housing: The housing at PNCA is really great and spacious. We had our own kitchen and bathrooms and our own washers and dryers in each dorm room. Many dorm rooms were more like shared apartments. The only complaint I had was that the prices for the dorms are exceedingly high and impossible for one student to pay for. I shared a studio apartment with another roommate and still paid around $1,300 a month. I had to pull an extra loan to pay for it. *(6)
