College of Fine Arts (Art) is a college specializing in teaching and research of fine arts (art)。The major is divided into two categories: modeling (painting) and design。The professional is strong, the artistic atmosphere is stronger, focuses on the training of artists and designers, and is also more suitable for students with artistic talent。
Generally, there is no comprehensive ranking, but its reputation in the art circle will be significantly higher than that of comprehensive universities, and the training direction is more free and self-centered, focusing on artistic expression and creation。If the academic record is average, but the professional art ability is strong, it is suitable for this type of school。
Comprehensive university refers to a multi-disciplinary university, which has a number of colleges。A comprehensive institution of higher learning covering (philosophy, arts, science, engineering, management, law, medicine, agriculture and forestry, economics, education, arts, etc.)。

What we need to know is that in pure art colleges, there are more BFA degree programs, that is, we say pure art courses, more emphasis on artistic practice;In comprehensive colleges, there are more BA courses, and more emphasis on studying theory through art!
Pure Art (BFA) majors emphasize more PRACTICE, so pure art is also called STUDIO BASED or PRACTICE BASED RESEARCH in the Academy of Fine Arts。That you have to make things and show things to express your ideas and opinions anyway。Since the school is a place to train artists, the education is relatively flexible and loose, it only guides you to think like an artist, but does not force you to become a so-called qualified artist, so, this is why, you only love it and take the initiative to explore and practice, you can learn something。
Comprehensive universities generally have more BA courses and focus more on theoretical professional research。
