Master
Admissions

Admission to a Master is done through a competitive examination, which assesses the artistic and creative abilities of the candidates.

* ECAL evaluates title's equivalences. This procedure being relatively long, a request of examination (Diploma, transcripts & cv) must be submitted by email to ECAL Secretariat inscription@ecal.ch until 4 March 2024 the latest.

> Request of evaluation submitted after the above mentionned date will not be processed.

• a curriculum vitae
• a copy of passport or identity card
• a copy of Bachelor's degree (or equivalent certificate), diploma supplement and transcripts (an authentic translation is required for languages other than French, German, Italian English and Spanish).

• a presentation and motivation letter
• a short description of the Master project
• a representative portfolio of recent works. Films or other moving images will only be accepted via a "Vimeo channel". 

The master’s admissions process that is based on an application file (ASD-M) gives candidates without an undergraduate degree (or equivalent) the opportunity to enrol in a master’s programme at a university of applied sciences (HES).

In order to be eligible, candidates must :

• be at least 25 years old at the time of application.
• have at least seven years of professional or artistic experience in their chosen field. Candidates need to provide evidence of their activities by submitting letters of recommendation and a portfolio outlining all of their artistic and/or design-related projects and achievements.
