I'm doing a bit of research for a program at my current position (a TT position, thankfully). I've been looking into art/designs schools...anyone have any experiences, thoughts, or what have you about - in particular - the Savannah College of Arts and Design?
Feel free to DM so as to avoid any sort of public comments, if you wish. I'm just putting out some feelers.
(Or first year transfer)
Title basically says it all.
I’m doing a story for class on the increase in enrollment in UNT’s College of Visual Arts and Design and how the renovations to the art building will affect the trend going forward.
We would need to do the interview sometime before Thursday. If you’re not able to do an in-person interview, we can conduct it through email.
Let me know if you’re interested!
Hey everyone !! I’m going into college next fall and MCAD is one of my top schools. Anything I should know before applying?
i am already confirmed to be going to LSU in the fall this year. i'm actually. pretty excited. but, an answer that i haven't gotten is a personally important one.
if you or another person has been through the selective admissions for the graphic design department at LSU, what was it like? what did the professors look for? if possible, may i see any examples of work that you did or that another person did to be accepted?
the help is much appreciated! geaux tigers!
I have a very strong interest in art and want to become an artist as there is basically nothing else I could see myself doing with my life besides being a musician. I have done my research and I know about the many mistakes and pitfalls people can fall into when it comes to higher education. I know about the horror stories about student loan debt, college students taking more than 4 years to graduate, the drop-out rates, that many college students end up switching majors, and perhaps worst of all despite avoiding all of those mistakes and pitfalls ever since 2008 you've seen a large amount if not possible at times depending on the year a majority of college graduates ending up unemployed or underemployed because of a lack of connections or a plan for what career they were going to get or because of the atrocious job market in their field. Now more than ever before we have seen a lot of young people live at home with their parents long after they're 22 and young people are economically much more worse off than their parents ever were at the same age.
I understand that Ringling is a private art school and it is expensive so I am trying to make this decision wisely and make sure that I don't end up fucking up my entire life and regretting this major life-changing decision. With that in mind, I have done my research and it seems to be an excellent institution for me to attend and graduate from. I am interested in illustration and I've looked through all of the majors and curriculum thoroughly and Ringling definitely seems to have what I am looking for in terms of my career goals as a professional artist. I've looked at other universities such as UCF, UF, and FSU and they either do not have the kind of art education I am looking for and UF in particular and FSU as well do not have from what I have researched good job placement rates for their art graduates whether if it is in fine art or commercial art or most other creative majors. FSU seems to be the best of all of the public universities especially since i can repeat most of my art courses twice and allows in the BFA two specializations but even so it does not seem to have a complete program for illustration unlike Ringling and UCF's illustration and arguably other specializations and art programs are lacking in comparison to other universities and art schools in Florida.
Therefore, I am strongly considering going to Ringling but I want to make sure it is worth it. I want to leave the U.S. and live an
