Program Description:

Study at Victorian College of the Arts

Located in the heart of Melbourne's arts precinct, the University of Melbourne's Victorian College of the Arts (VCA) provides an inspiring study abroad option for students majoring in studio and performing arts. The opportunity to share learning with like-minded individuals amid the energy and excitement of a small urban campus will encourage you to discover your own creative potential.

Your courses at VCA will offer individual attention as there are only 1,100 students enrolled at the college. You'll find modern facilities including music rooms, studio space, and theaters that enhance the learning environment. Outside the classroom, you'll find that theaters, galleries, and performance venues abound within a ten minute walk of VCA's compact campus.
