About the PCAE Program
Academy of Art University offers the Pre-College Art Experience (PCAE), a TUITION-FREE pre-college program, to all high school students interested in experiencing what student life is like in an art college. It’s a great opportunity to jump-start your art and design education while earning money toward your college degree.
