Financial Aid
inancial aid awarded through the Academy
of Fine Arts for 1980-81 is expected to consist of a combination of aid sources: grant funds,
a campus work opportunity and a low-interest
student loan. Financial aid will be renewed on a
yearly basis providing that students re-applyb~
the established deadline, continue to meet elIgIbility criteria, and adhere to the academic policy
of the Academy. *
tColiege Work Study (CWS): The CWS program, 80% federally funded and 20% Academy
funded, is an employment program which is considered to be a form of financial assistance and
is offered to all students demonstrating financial
need. The amount awarded through CWS is part
of a student's total aid award for the year. The
hours of employment vary but are designed not
to interfere with a student's study.
Financial aid is awarded only after students
have been admitted to the Academy. The aid
awarded is based on the assumption that students enroll full-time in the Day School (15
credits).
Academy Tuition Scholarships: Students
who have completed one year at the Academy
are eligible for Academy tuition scholarships.
These scholarships are awarded annually on the
basis of merit and need. Application for this aid
includes submitting a portfolio to the Faculty
each Spring. Students awarded scholarships receive either full or half tuition credit for the ensuing school year. Descriptions of these scholarships may be found in the 1980-81 school
catalogue.
F
T
he following programs are expected to be
available for the 1980-81 school year:
Basic Educational Opportunity Grant
(BEOG): This federally administered program is
available to all regularly enrolled students who
have not yet earned a Bachelor's Degree.
Grants from $200-$1800 are awarded on the
basis of need, student attendance status, and
duration of program. The BEOG is the basis for
all financial aid at the Academy. All financial aid
applicants who do not hold a Bachelor's degree,
regardless of income, are required to apply for a
Basic Grant.
tSupplementary Education Opportunity
Grant (SEOG): The SEOG program is federally
funded but administered by the Academy.
Grants of $200 to $1500 (not to exceed $4000
over the course of study) are available to
students who demonstrate need and who have
not earned a Bachelor's Degree. Eligible
students are automatically considered for this
program .
Guaranteed Student Loan Program (GSL):
The GSL program is available to all regularly
enrolled students not in default in any financial
aid grant or loan program. Students may borrow
a maximum of $2500 per year, not to exceed
$7500 over the course of study. These loans are
currently available at 7% interest. Repayment is
deferred until the conclusion of studies. The application should be obtained from a bank, credit
union, or savings and loan in the state in which
you are a legal resident.
'Refer to 1980-81 school catalogue for standards of
academic progress.
tThese programs are proposed for 1980-81.
COSTS OF EDUCATION
The costs listed below are projected to assist
you in your financial planning for the 1980-81
year. The actual costs will vary from student to
student. If a student finds that the budget assigned differs widely from the expenses actually
incurred, he should be sure to inform the Financial Aid Office.

spond to factors described frequently
by art educators as critical to a productive art school environment. In
combination they provide a comprehensive and accessible base for the
development of visual artists.
Among the objectives of the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts listed in
the application for Charter on December 26, 1805 are ", , .. assisting
the studies and exciting the efforts of
the artist gradually to unfold, enlighten and invigorate the talents of
our countr ymen:' Almost two centuries later the Academy community
continues to aspire toward those
goals.

but has grown to prominence as one Clymer, the Academy's first President
of the nation's great collections of was a signer of the Declaration of
3
Independence and the fledglin g organization included William Rush,
Thomas Sully and Rembrandt Peale.
Several important artists strengthened the school's middle years. John
Sartain, the great mezzotint engraver,
a director of the Academy, and Christian Schussele were leading spirits.
America's greatest 19th Century artist, Thomas Eakins, began teaching in
1876, and became Director of the
School in 1882.
In 1876 the Academy's Board noted
with pride that in their opinion the
school had no superior in any country,
and in 1905, at its hundredth anniversary celebration, William Merritt
Chase called it "the most important
art institution in America:' And indeed it was, for the Pennsylvania
Academy has been the initial training
ground of many important and now
celebrated American artists, including: Mary Cassatt, Thomas Eakins,
Edwin Austin Abbey, and William
Michael Harnett. Aspiring students
came first to stud y with Christian
Schussele then with Thomas Eakins
and later with Thomas Hovenden and
Thomas Anshutz. In the early 1900's,
there were Willia m Merritt Chase,
Cecilia Beaux , Henry 0. Tanner, Emil
Carlsen, Robert Vonnoh, Charles
Grafiy, Joseph DeCamp and Henry
Thouron.
The students of the early 20th Century years often acknowledged with
deep affection and respect their appreciation of the Academy school:
Robert Henri, William Glackens,
George Luks, John Sloan, A. Sterling
Calder, John Marin, Everett Shinn,
Charles Sheeler, Monon Sham berg,
Charles Demuth, Henry McCarter
and Arthur B. Carles who, along with
Sheeler and Demuth, is one of America's outstanding Twentieth Century
Modernists. Many well-known artists,
students and teachers including
Hugh H. Breckenridge, Daniel
Garber, Albert Laessle, Edward
Redfield, George Harding, Walter
Steumpfig, Harry Rosin, Hobson
Pittman, and Franklin Watkins pre-
cede the outstanding group of artists
who comprise the present faculty of
the Academy School.
The Pennsylvania Academy is unique
in its tradition of regenerative process
wherein each generation of artists
teaching and exhibiting at the
Academy shares its experience and
expertise with the next succeedi ng
generation, creating an unbroken line
of excellence that stretches from
Charles Willson Peale to the present.
And the Academy building itself is a
work of art. Its restored studio spaces
are not only redolent of its history, but
filled with that light which still illuminates the same creative activities it was
originally designed to serve.
But as the School grew, more space
was needed. In 1962 the Academy
purchased the Belgravia Hotel, at
4
1811 Chestnut Street, named it "Peale
House" after the Academy's founder
and - transformed it into studios,
classrooms, offices, and galleries to
accommodate an expanding student
enrollment, student activity and to
have small special exhibitions.
Time and change have had their effect on the Academy as on any institution or activity, but in its lon g and
distinguished history of creating,
collecting and exhibiting contemporary art, the Pennsylvania Academy
still fulfills its function and serves the
purpose as outlined in the original
charter.

LOCATION
The Academy school is located in one
of the great historical, cultural and
aes th etic centers of America. An easy
walk south from the school on Broad
Street, for example, is the monumental City Hall , on which Alexander
Calder's grandfather, a stone-cutter,
spent thirty yea rs doing various
statuary including the thirty-seven
foot statue of William Penn which
stands atop the main tower. Further
south, at Broad and Locust streets, is
the Academy of Music, an acoustical
masterpiece and home of the worldfamous Philadel phia Orchestra. East
of the Academy of Music on Locust
Street is the Pennsylvania Historical
Society which has the finest collection
of colonial manuscripts in existence, a
great furniture collection, and several
hundred portraits by such early masters as Benjamin West, the Peales,
Gilbert Stuart and Thomas Sully. On
down Locust Street is Washington
Square and the beginning of the Society Hill area, which includes Independence Hall, the American
Philosophical Society, the first and still
the lead ing scienti fic and learned
society in America, and a host of other
•
historic buildings, now restored and
maintained by the National Park Service. In add ition, the area includes the
largest collection of colonial domestic
architecture in the nation. West on
Locust Street from the Academy of
Music and near the Peale House is
Rittenhouse Square, the center of the
Victorian City, on which is located the
Curtis Institute of Music and the Art
Alliance.
West on Cherry Street from the
Academy School is Logan Circle, with
its fountains and statuary done by
Alexander Calder's father. Out the
Parkway from Logan Circle is the
Franklin Institute, the Rodin
Museum and finally the Philadelphia
Museum of Art, which includes a
large mobile by Alexander Calder as
well as many fine collections of European and Oriental art, especially the
Johnson and Arensberg collections of
paintings. The Museum stands at the
beginning of Fairmount Park, the
largest municipal park in the world. It
includes the Philadelphia Zoo, the
first in the nation, and the finest
group of 18th century mansions north
of Virginia. Due to the influence of
the early Quakers and their love of
botany, the Park contains almost
three million trees of endless variety
and beauty. It stretches out from the
Museum on both sides of the
Schuylkill River where scullers are
even more ubiquitous today than
when Thomas Eakins painted his incomparable portraits of them.
Besides the cultural advantages of the
city, students at the Academy have
ample opportunity to interact with a
host of students from no less than 48
other institutions of higher education
5
in the Philadelphia area, including
several other fine art colleges.
Philadelphia is not only an urban
center of historical and contemporary
beauty; its near and far suburbs are
also of great interest to the artist: to
the west of the city along the Main
Line , for instance, there is the Albert
Barnes Museum which contains one
of the truly great collections of 19th
and early 20th century French paintings, man y by Cezanne, Renoir and
Matisse; out at the end of the Main
Line is Valley Forge Park, a paradise
of natural beauty, especially in the
Spring and the Fall months. To the
south of the city is Chadds Ford, or
Andrew Wyeth country, where many
painters and illustrators ha ve lived
and worked ever since the d ays of
Howard Pyle and N. C. Wyeth . To the
north of the city is the Bucks County
artist's colony of New Hope, as well as
nearby Newtown where Edward
Hicks, a Quaker primitive painter,
spent his life painting some sixty, now
famous "Peaceable Kingdoms:'
The City of Philadelphia and its suburbs, then, provide Academy students
with a wide variety of cultural and
aesthetic experiences .

BUILDINGS
When the Pennsylvania Academy of
the Fine Arts at Broad and Cherry
Streets opened the doors of its third
and present home, in time for the
great crowds of Centennial visitors in
1876, its vigorous and imaginative
polych rome design was highly
acclaimed and caused a sensation in
the normally subdued Quaker City.
Designed by the young Philadelphia
architectural firm of Furness and
Hewitt, whose principals were Frank
Furness and George W Hewitt, the
building, housing both a museum and
art school, was bold, colorful, flooded
with natural light, flamboyantly decorated in the la test high Victorian
manner, yet efficiently and functionally planned. The building was completely restored in 1976.
The majority of classes for the first
year students are held in another
Academy building, the Peale House at
1811 Chestnut Street and over 75 faculty and advanced students occupy
private studios in that space.
The Peale House facility allows
Academy artists to meet on a seven
day a week basis and to extend the
school curriculum in its professional
dimensions.
COLLECTION
"What I admire most about the Pennsylvania Academy is its integrity. If the
chief job of the Museum is to preserve, as I believe it is , then the
Academy has done its job well. The
great Furness building remains intact
while most of our other nineteenthcentury museums have been "improved" beyond recognition. The
collection itself is a fine one, greater by
far as a preserved whole than as a
gathering of undeniable masterworks. In an age when museums seek
to dazzle, the Academy is one of a
handful of institutions which seeks to
preserve its heritage, keeping faith
with the past while planning for the
future:'
Theodore E. Stebbins, Jr.
Curator of American Painting
Museum of Fine Arts, Boston

LIBRARY
The Academy Library provides students with a thorough survey of the
history of art, as well as materials to
stimulate individual inspiration. The
collection includes a clipping file, a
biographical file of artists, books,
magazines, exhibition catalogs and
color rep rod uctions .
ARCHIVES
The Archive of the Pennsylvania
Academy preserves primary source
materials relating to the history of the
institution. Archives include documents from the Academy schools and
from past exhibitions as well as information about many of the artists associated with the Academy. Researchers are welcome by appointment.

Let a student enter the school with this
ad"ice:
No matter how good the school is , his
education is in his own hands . All education must be self-education .
. . . The school is a thing of the period.
1t has the faults and virtues of the
period.
It is up to the student whether he becomes a school-made man or whether he
uses the school as a place of experience
where there are both good and bad advices, where there are strengths and
weaknesses, where there are facilities, and
much information to be had the instructors, and much to be gained by association
with the other students .
. . . A school should be an offering of
opportunity, not a direction, and the
student should know that the school will
be good for him only to the degree that
he makes it good.

IDENTIFICATION AND
REGISTRA TION CARDS

Admission to classes is by registration card only. In addition, a photo

lost photo 1.0. card will cost the student $2.00.
FINANCIAL AID
The Academy Financial Aid Program is comprised of grant aid, work
study, loans , and tuition scholarships. The Financial Aid Form (FAF)
of the College Scholarship Service
serves as the application for all aid
at the Academy. Aid for new and
transfer students is need based and
is initiated by the F AF. Con tin uing
slUdents are also eligible for merit
aid (See "Academy Tuition
Scholarships").
Students must maintain Satisfactory
Progress, as defined by Academy academic policy, in order to continue
to receive financial aid. Students who
are unable to do so will be placed on
probation . Failure to resume satisfactory progress in the prescribed
time, generally one semester, will result in the loss of financial aid. SlUdents who withdraw without official
approval or who are dismissed will
not be eligible for financial aid on
their return for the repeat of that
semester.
Any student who completes the FAF
will be considered for assistance but
preference will be given to students
whose
eeds Analysis Repons
(FAFNAR's) have been received
from College Scholarship Service by
the preceeding March 31. Applicants to the School need not be ad-
mitted to apply for aid, but must
have been admitted to the School
before aid will be awarded. SLUde~ts
should allow four to six weeks tor
the completion of the F~FNAR.
Transfer students are requ~red to submit a financia l aid transcnpt for each
post-secondary school they have attended indicating whether or not
they received aid . Federal law prohibits distribution of grant or loan
funds before receipt of the transcript and it should therefore be
filed early. Transcript forms are
available from the Aid Office.
Additional information, brochures,
and the Financial Aid Form are
available through the Financial Aid
Office, Pennsylvania Academy of the
Fine Arts, ISII Chestnut Street,
Philadelphia, 19103.
SATISFACTORY PROGRESS
To be eligible for the four year certificate and financial aid, students
must maintain a B -, cumulative
grade average. Students whose average falls below a B - will be placed
on probation for the ensuing semester. Failure to raise the average to
the prescribed level will result in loss
of eligibility for financial aid and the
Academy Certificate. However, students whose probation is academic
and not disciplinary may continue
to enroll and attend class as space
permits. Students whose records are
incomplete or who have not received a sufficient number of grades
allow them to receive the certifIcate in a timely manner may be
placed on probation .

ACADEMY TUITION
SCHOLARSHIPS
Each March, the Academy conducts
an annual tuition assistance competition for full time, enrolled students. The scholarships are awarded

living and other expenses.
VETERANS
The P.A.F.A. is approved for veterans

Art or tile University of Pennsylvania
his status must remain "Full-Time"*.
A Veteran wishing to enroll on a part
time basis will be restricted to the
Evening or Summer school programs.
In order to comply with grade and
credit regulations as outlined by the
VA, a student is required to take a
minimum of three evening or summer school courses resulting in at least
three grades and 4.5 semester credits. Veterans are subject to all school
academic and disciplinary rules
without exception.
*Full-Time = 15 semester credits

Unsatisfactory Progress Students receiving pun itive grades are placed
on probation for sixty days. If unsatisfactory progress continues beyond the probationary period, the
student's training will be immediately interrupted and all concerned
will be notified accordingly. Students dismissed because of unsatisfactory progress may apply for reentrance; however, each case will be
considered on the basis of the facts
involved.
Rifund Policy In the event a war orphan or eligible person fails to enter
the course, or withdraws or is discontinued therefrom at any time prior to
completion, the amount charged to
the veteran for tuition, fees, and other
charges for a portion of the course
shall not exceed the approximate pro
rata portion of the total charges for
49
tuition, fees, and other charges that
the length of the completed portion
of the course bears to its total length.
Credit for Previous Education and

an official transcript is charged ($1.00
for each additional copy). Official
credit or the issuing of a transcript
of recOl-d will not be granted by the
Academy to a student who has not
completely satisfied any financial
obligation to the institution.

Furthermore, there is habit in my
calling on his memory and I have

CRESSON MEMORIAL
TRA VELING SCHOLARSHIPS
By the liberal provisions ofthe wills of
Emlen Cresson and Priscilla P., his
wife, a Fund has been created as a
memorial to their deceased son,
William Emlen Cresson, Academician, the income from which is to be
applied by the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in sending
pupils of merit to Europe. These
scholarships shall be awarded under
such rules and regulations as shall be
adopted from time to time by the
Board of Directors of the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. The
award of Cresson Scholarships has
had significant inAuence on hundreds of recipients over many years
and has been a great boon to this
Academy. In the Spring of 1969 the
one thousandth award was made. To
emphasize the importance of these
awards and to broaden the advantages to our students, and because the
Fund realizes very generous income
each year, the Management, through
its Committee on Instruction , has established the practice of approving
the recommendation of the Faculty
for either first or second awards.
These scholarships were first awarded in 1902.
In 1978, the award of a Cresson
55
Traveling Scholarship credited each
student with $3,700 of which $2,300
was used for a summer of travel and
traveling expe nses in Europe, and
the remaining $1,400 was used for
Academy tuition for the two terms
immediately following. Each year the
sums may vary, as adjustments in tuition charges and traveling expenses
dictate. Each recipient is required to
return to the Academy for the continuance of regular studio work in an
additional year as an advanced student. He is expected to help set high
professional standards among our
students after his return from Europe. In cases of exceptional merit,
and when a very decided improve-

ment is evident, a student may ,
through the same authority, receive
the award a second time. Competition for a second scholarship must be
entered during the year succeeding
the first award, unless otherwise
ruled by the Committee on Instruction on written application. The
award of a Cresson Traveling Scholarship the seco nd time credits the
student with the sum established for
that year to be used for travel and
traveling expenses, and may be used
any time within twenty-eight months
after receipt o f the award.
Five Cresson Traveling Scholarships were awa rded in 1978. Every
student in good health and without
knowledge of any physical condition
or any other reason to prevent accepting and properly using such scholarships is eligible for competition for
Cresson Traveling Scholarships.
Competitors must have an aggregate
of 90 Academy Winter School weeks
to their credit which must have been
accumulated within five (5) years of
the date of competition. The final 30
weeks (two terms) must be spent in
the Winter School of the Academy
and must be within the year of competition. One summer and one semester of evening school or two semesters of evening school may be allowed
as equivalent of one semester by
special approval of the administratIOn.
Every student must have a complete
and unbroken registration record.
Painters and Graphics Majors must
also have satisfactori ly comp leted the
work in Materials and Techniques in
Perspective and Art History. Sculptors must meet the requirements of
56
the Sculpture faculty and attend the
Art History lectures. All financial obligations must be fully paid.
All students entering the competition
are required to complete the official
application. All work submitted in
competition must be that which h as
been done in the Academy studios or
for Academy registration. It must be
work completed within the last 30
weeks of the Winter School. All work
in competitions must be approved
and recorded before entry by two
Faculty instructors.
All competitors are unrestricted as to
amount, size and variety of work they
submit in the competition groups,
provided they do not exceed the
space allotted. Each sculptor'S group
must include a composition. Work
must be exhibited unframed and unglazed. If tape or stripping is used to
trim unsightly edges of canvas, it may
be used to give order rather than enhance and must not encroach upon
Micheline VanCompernolle
the face of the canvas.
Cresson 79
The recipient of a first traveling
scholarship must account for a period
of at least 90 days in Europe and an
itinerary and financial ,"eport is required for filing in the school office
before October 15.
The recipient of a second traveling
scholarship is granted the sum for
travel and travel expenses and a general accounting must be made and
filed in the school office within three
months of the end of its use. The
student is not required to return for
another period of study but may
apply for free tuition should addiJohn C. Nissen
tional study be advisable. Use of free
Cresson 79
tuition under such circumstances
may be regulated and arranged with
the Dean of the schools.
The Faculty will not recommend
awards of traveling scholarships if, in
its opinion, the work submitted is not
of sufficient merit to justify such recommendation. A student may not be
awarded more than one traveling
scholarship in any given year and is
ineligible for competition after hav- pean Traveling Scholarships in
amount and under regulations simiing received two such awards.

Eligibility for this competition will be

certain circumstances, for a competing student to make application to the
58
Dean of the Schools at least three
months before the date of competition for a particular program.
These Scholarships were first
awarded in 1949 and seven Schiedt

THE PENNSYLVANIA
GOVERNOR'S AWARD
THE PHILADELPHIA MAYOR'S
AWARD FOR OUTSTANDING
ACCOMPLISHMENT BY A
STUDENT IN THE FINE ARTS
As the Pennsylvania Academy of the
Fine Arts was established in Philadelphia in 1805 in the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania, it is deemed appropriate that the offices of the Governor of
Pennsylvania and of the Mayor of
Philadelphia be honored by this
Academy with an award recognizing
the contribution of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to the arts in
America and of the importance of the
City of Philadelphia as a cultural
center.
Two awards, of $1,000.00 each, have
therefore been established to be given
annually to two graduating Pennsylvania Academy students who have
shown outstanding accomplishment
in the fine arts.
These awards which are unrestricted
in their use, will be given upon the
recommendation of the faculty and
are limited to those students who have
60
in the preceding year, won a Cresson,
Schiedt or a Ware scholarship and are
exhibiting in our annual student exhibition as candidates for a second
award.
This special consideration is given to
these graduating students in anticipation of their future contribution to
the community through their art, and
in particular, to extend moral and
practical support at a moment when
such aid can most directly benefit the
difficult and unique transition from
student to independent artist.
CHARLES
TOPPAN
THE
PRIZES- These prizes were established in 1881 by the gift of Mrs.
Charles Toppan, Miss Harriette R.
Toppan and Mr. Robert N. Toppan.
Due to the considerable appreciation
in value of this trust, the following
regulations were put into effect in
1962, enlarging the benefits but
adheling to the positively expressed
terms of the original gift that "The
drawing of the work submitted will
receive first attention of the examiners." First awarded in 1882.
Up to six prizes will be available each
year at the discretion of the Committee on Instruction , depending on the
amount of income available. A maximum of three drawings matted or
prepared for exhibit but not glass
covered with no limit on size, subject
matter or media, may be submitted in
the spring of each year by regularly
enrolled students, whose records
show attendance for at least two years
previous to the current competition.
They will be judged by the Faculty, or
a committee of the Faculty, and the
winners' work is to be exhibited with
the major competition of the season.
Any student may receive a Toppan
award but once, and there shall be no
obligation to award prizes to any
work which, in the opinion of the
judges, is not of sufficient merit.
THE PACKARD PRIZES- From
the income of the John H. Packard
Fund, established by the children of
the late John H. Packard , M.D. , for

part in the competition. If no study be
satisfactory to the Jury, the prize may
be withheld. When no award is made,
the amount of the prize may, at the
discretion of the Board of Directors,
be added to the principal of the prize
fund or distributed with future
prizes. The clay models offered in
competition must be kept standing in
