About
Imagine a place where outstanding faculty, a rich educational tradition, and an ideal location combine to educate talented, diverse students for the world's good... The College of Communication and Fine Arts (CFA) aims to be the destination of choice for talented students from richly diverse backgrounds. Our programs in theatre, communication studies, music, dance, studio art, art history, and marital and family therapy (clinical art therapy) are grounded in a rich Jesuit and Marymount educational philosophy still relevant and compelling in the 21st century. Our exceptional and dedicated faculty is well prepared to nurture and challenge students to realize their full potential to enjoy lives of meaning and purpose.
CFA is ideally located in Los Angeles, home to 61 museums and more than 1,000 performing arts venues, more than any other U.S. metropolitan area. Los Angeles attracts diverse people in communication, media, commerce, the arts, social and political change agents -- assuring abundant opportunities for student learning and career development. Situated on a campus overlooking the city and the Pacific Ocean, we gather remarkable people to a close-knit community that supports their best thinking and prepares them for lives distinguished by creative and compassionate responses to a complex and needy world.
