They have undergraduate and graduate programs covering various disciplines like drawing, painting, ceramics, printmaking, photography, and design. UNT's art facilities are top-notch, and many students appreciate the supportive faculty and vibrant arts community present on campus.

2. Texas State University — In San Marcos, Texas State University has a reputable School of Art and Design that offers undergraduate programs in communication design, studio art, art history, and art education. Graduate programs are also offered in communication design and fine arts. Texas State is known for its supportive faculty, hands-on learning, and focus on student growth and skill development.

3. University of Texas at Austin (UT Austin) — UT Austin has an acclaimed College of Fine Arts, which is highly regarded for its quality faculty, state-of-the-art facilities, and comprehensive programs.
