itscontents got a reaction from Nico Lin in Visual studies type PhD programs
yes good point, just that non traditional art history paths might be more interesting in terms of content and being able in incorporate other neighboring fields into research ie psychology, comp lit, philosophy...
also get overwhelmed by the options with art history phd as I am not sure how compétitive they are, haven't done much research in terms of top programs etc. beyond princeton and columbia

itscontents got a reaction from Nico Lin in Visual studies type PhD programs
I am interested in a PhD that is not strictly Art History but that is something more like UCI's Visual Studies/ UCSD's Art Practice PhD.
Can anyone recommend similar programs?
I am also open to applying to (funded) programs that are combined MA/PhD programs in Art History. I don't have as strong a background in art history but have an art practice and a background in philosophy/theory and some art history so could benefit from that type of program, if you have heard of programs of this nature, besides UPenn and UMinnesota? I am currently in an MA program in aesthetics/politics.
Thoughts from graduates/students in the programs mentioned appreciated.
Suggestions welcome, thank you.

I am not sure for Rutgers! I received a rejection email several days ago, so I would say that if you have not received a rejection, you could still be in the running
No clue on UCI though.
Edit: also, thanks @dryheat for the insight on OSU!
