About
Where better to study art history and curatorship than surrounded by Australia’s national cultural and collecting institutions? At Australia’s premier practice-led research institution, the ANU School of Art and Design, you will study the history of art while surrounded by the making of art.
At ANU you can take advantage of our strong connections to the National Gallery of Australia, the National Museum of Australia, the National Portrait Gallery, the National Library and the Australian War Memorial to participate in our renowned internship program.
Admission criteria
- A bachelor degree or international equivalent with a minimum GPA of 6.0/7.0.
- Approval of an identified supervisor for the research project/thesis. To locate a suitable supervisor, contact the relevant program convener at ANU. View the list of Master Program Convenors for contact details. Upload your completed Thesis Supervisor Confirmation Form as a PDF within the UAC application.
- Compliance with the Australian National University's English language requirements for admission policy.
Unless otherwise indicated, ANU will accept all Australian Qualifications Framework qualifications or international equivalents that meet or exceed the published admission requirements of our programs, provided all other admission requirements are also met. Where an applicant has more than one completed tertiary qualification, ANU will base assessment on the qualification that best meets the admission requirements for the program.
Contact the College if you have any queries regarding the application requirements.
GPA calculation
ANU uses a 7-point grade point average (GPA) scale. All qualifications submitted for admission at ANU will be converted to this common scale, which will determine if an applicant meets our published admission requirements. Find out how a 7-point GPA is calculated for Australian universities.
Unless otherwise indicated, where an applicant has more than one completed tertiary qualification, ANU will calculate the GPA for each qualification separately. ANU will base assessment on the best GPA of all completed tertiary qualifications that are eligible to be considered.
