Best MFA programs in Painting

[WhitneyBurnett]

Hello,

i am currently going into my Junior year of college as an art major and researching potential graduate programs. Does anyone know what are the best MFA in studio art programs for painting and with excellent funding? Also, what schools appreciate representational art?

Indiana Bloomington is respected for painting and representational (figurative) art. Search the forum threads there are lists that provide insight into schools with excellent funding.

University of North Carolina Greensboro... fantastic painting faculty and excellent funding.  The program itself is interdisciplinary, but there is plenty of support for painting.
