I'd say graphic design is more about the layout, colour choices, composition, font, user interface design (like with webpages),
its like getting the functionality of it down, and then decorating it so it looks pretty
in short, graphic design is more abstract and graphic arts is more about the rendered details, draughtsmanship etc

Graphic design is typically creating designs for publication —think magazines, posters, websites and such. It's about communicating a message.
Graphic arts is a field about designing art to appear on a two-dimensional surface —a sheet of paper, a computer screen, the two-dimensional surface of a pot. There's a lot of overlap between graphic arts and graphic design, but graphic arts is more about the "arts" part.
Illustration is the art of drawing and painting a specific image, typically in two-dimensions. This can include line drawing, volumetric painting or other techniques.
Hope that helps.

Design is an overall thing; in the context of graphics, you might think of it as cvisual engineering"--how will the page / billboard / video / etc. LOOK visually?
Illustration is actually making a drawing (but "illustrating" conveys the sense of having a purpose in explaining or presenting, like drawings in Grey's Anatomy).
Graphic arts is an umbrella term for that entire area of art. (Just as "performing arts" include things like piano playing, orchestral works, dance.)

Graphic design usually has strict rules about composition, typography, printability, UX and UI
If you referred to graphic arts in context of an art school, I'd think about traditional techniques like drawing with pencil or ink or some printing techniques like lino print or lithography
Illustration usually refers to an image that accompanies some literary work, typically stories in books.

An illustration is drawing ( like withdrawing money) of a concept or idea from the mind onto a medium to make it tangible. We can illustrate using words or sketches or other ways.
A graphic art is when an already tangible / visible thing is presented graphically. Like a painting of a monument or a person or landscape.
Graphic design is just presenting shapes and colours in a visually appealing manner.
