Applying to ArtFx: your questions
How can Dimensions France help me get into ArtFx?
We start from your profile: your grades, your degree, your budget and what you want to do after your studies. From that we help you choose the ArtFx programme where your application is strongest. Then we build the application with you, so that it is as strong as it can be: we work on your CV and statement of purpose, check every document the school asks for, and submit the file on time. We then follow the application with ArtFx and tell you what the school asks for next. If the school invites you to an interview, we prepare you for it. ArtFx makes the final decision, and admission is never guaranteed.
What does a strong application to ArtFx need?
Three things carry most of the weight: your academic record, a statement of purpose that explains why this programme fits your studies so far and your plans, and proof of your level in the teaching language. Private schools such as ArtFx usually add an interview, and for a Master’s they look at how your first degree connects to the subject. We read your file the way an admissions team would, tell you honestly where it is weak, and help you fix what can be fixed before it is sent.
What English level do I need for ArtFx?
For the English-taught programmes it lists in the Campus France catalogue, ArtFx asks for level B2 in English. Some schools waive the test if your previous degree was taught in English. We check the exact score for the programme you choose before you book a test.
When should I apply to ArtFx?
ArtFx sets its own dates for each intake, and popular programmes can fill before the final deadline. Applying early gives you more choice and leaves time for your student visa.
Which programmes at ArtFx are taught in English?
8 of the programmes listed on this page are taught fully in English, including 3D and Digital Visual Effects Artist, 3D Character Animation Artist, Program - 3D and Visual effects - Enghien les Bains and Program - Video game - Game design and development - Montpellier. Tell us your background and we will tell you which of them you are eligible for.
