Alumni Benefits

MCAD alumni are more active than ever before. There are a number of events to get involved in. Take advantage of a lifelong learning opportunity, a critique with your fellow alumni or a volunteer opportunity. There will always be new ways to get connected with MCAD Studio Sessions.

Children of degreed alumni receive a 10 percent discount on tuition for academic programs when enrolled full time. Alumni also receive discounts on non-credit continuing education courses, including the weekly life-drawing co-op.

Children of degreed MCAD alumni receive $275 off the cost of MCAD's Pre-College Summer Sessions, two week residential programs for high school students.

March's featured insurance program is for Long Term Care Insurance.

• Health insurance: Alumni are eligible for a special group discount on short- and long-term health insurance through Meyer and Associates.
• Life Insurance: Long-term protection with great rates and fantastic features. Coverage is available to $1 million from Meyer and Associates.
• Dental insurance: Alumni and their families have their choice from more than 30 national and regional discount dental plans. Plans starts low as $79.95 per year, with a savings of 10-60 percent on most dental procedures.

Take advantage of the already-discounted supplies and material at MCAD’s Art Cellar, or use the resources and materials of MCAD's library ($20 annual fee).

A Bi-Annual conference is held for alumni and students to connect. Finding fellow MCAD alumni on Facebook and Twitter is a great way to network online.
