Frequently asked questions
Are classes held on campus or online?
All classes in our two-year Concept Art program take place on campus at New3dge in Paris. Some sessions, such as feedback sessions, may be conducted online. However, students are still required to attend these sessions in person at the school.
Will the educators featured on your website teach in the program?
Absolutely. All educators featured on our website have taught at New3dge. However, our teaching team may vary from one academic year to the next, depending on their availability. We continuously strive to enhance our program by bringing in outstanding industry professionals.
What does a typical weekly schedule look like?
A typical week consists of 35 hours of instruction, with classes running from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, including a one-hour lunch break. Some projects also involve individual mentoring sessions with industry professionals, allowing students to receive personalized guidance rather than attending traditional classroom sessions.
Is it possible to enroll in only the first year of the program?
No. Enrollment is only available for the full two-year program. We believe that completing the entire curriculum is essential to developing a strong artistic foundation, receiving a comprehensive Concept Art education, and maximizing our students’ chances of success.
To secure a place among the 25 selected students, a two-year contractual commitment is required.
What are the portfolio requirements?
We recommend submitting a carefully curated portfolio of 10–15 pieces showcasing your strongest original work, whether in character design, environment design, or prop design. We prefer portfolios to be shared via an ArtStation link.
What diploma or qualification will I receive upon graduation?
Upon successful completion of our two-year Concept Art program, students receive a New3dge school diploma in Concept Art.
We are currently working toward obtaining official recognition through France’s RNCP (National Register of Professional Certifications), with the aim of extending this recognition retroactively to previously awarded diplomas.
What are the language requirements for admission?
Our two-year Concept Art program is taught entirely in English. We do not require standardized English language tests such as IELTS or TOEFL, as applicants’ English proficiency is assessed during the admission interview. No knowledge of French is required to enroll in the program.
How can international students apply, and what visa support is available?
International students follow the same application process as French applicants. Once admitted, New3dge provides the necessary enrollment documents to support your student visa application.
Please note that visa approval is determined by the French authorities. We recommend contacting the French consulate in your country for detailed information on visa requirements and procedures.
Do you offer assistance with accommodation?
While New3dge does not provide on-campus housing, we can refer students to reputable agencies that specialize in helping international students find accommodation in Paris.
Many of our students also choose to share apartments to reduce housing costs, particularly in areas served by Metro lines 12 and 13.
Do you offer Open Days or campus visits?
Yes! We organize one on-campus Open Day in November, giving prospective students the opportunity to explore our facilities, meet our educators, and discover our Concept Art program.
For those unable to visit us in Paris, we also offer online information sessions on multiple dates. These sessions feature a pre-recorded presentation of the school and its program, followed by a live Q&A session where participants can ask our team questions directly.
Please note that we are unable to arrange individual campus visits outside our Open Day, and unscheduled visits cannot be accommodated.
