Do not waste your money. Professors are not motivated, they do not teach you well, and I felt like I am wasting my money and time for the classes. The food they provide on the campus is pretty much junk food such as pizza, burger, chips, cookies, and it is so expensive, and the dining hours are very limited. My friend got 10 pounds during her stay at Purchase. The book store does not have enough supplies, and more expensive than a local store. There is always a party and drug stuffs going on every...

The school is more about money than the students. Teacher are hit and miss on actually teaching you and just trying to get you through the class. The schedules are crazy I never get my classes in the right order and the faculty and teachers don't seem to care that we are struggling through each class with no help from any one. Some teacher go way to fast and won't slow down so I can take notes and get mad when you have to ask them to explain something because they didn't cover it clearly. Most teacher... Read More are good at turning in grades so we know if we are passing or not but some teacher don't grade anything until the class is over. The classes always have a problem no place to work or the computers are down. The equipment is almost always braking or non functional. The teacher say to get everything done early so they can give you feed back to make changes. But they never do they wait tell you are in class so they can show every one what you did wrong. Every courter they want more money for supplies or other things for each class. some classes just on the paper and markers can be $200-$300. By the time you are ready for portfolio you won't have anything worth putting in it. Everything I learn I do on my free time with no instructor help. The people who work the hardest get the most crap from the teacher about the work they do. When people who clearly need help they don't even talk to. Every hope and dream I had for this art field is shattered crumbling to pieces in my hands. The job market is extremely hard to get into and is more about who you know then what you do. Witch will not help with the Art institute pined to your degree. The word is that students who come from this school are slow workers who are hard to train to do the job the way the company wants. I don't see a way out of this school so I am stuck teaching myself.

I loved going to Houghton, and the art program was phenomenal. If you are considering Houghton, just remember that it is a Christian college, so there are rules, such as dorm restrictions on opposite sex visitors and no alcohol. However, if you're looking for a rich and thought provoking college experience, Houghton is for you! It's a tiny, beautiful campus, where you'll recognize just about every face you pass and there are ample opportunities to build relationships with fellow students and get... Read More to know your professors. Quiet, rural, and serene. The perfect place for an art major who draws inspiration from nature!

Being surrounded by professional scholars at NYU automatically challenge my current thought process and deepen my understanding of technology. I was tested in working with other classmates from all walks of life, thus creating an environment of teamwork abilities. My experience at NYU has enabled me to learn how to facilitate work and leadership skills amongst a diverse group of people. As a result, I enhanced my performance in leadership direction, communicating, and writing ability. Therefore,... Read More I highly recommend New York University if they want to be challenged and grow as a person.

The Univerisity of North Texas (UNT) is a fantastic school for students interested in any major. The university offers a wide selection of degree programs and is well known for its College of Music as well as its College of Visual Art and Design (CVAD). During my four years at UNT, I studied Fine Arts and found the faculty, facilities, and course content phenomenal. The CVAD building was recently renovated and construction was completed following my graduation but from what I saw, the facilities... Read More are even better than before and offer students numerous tools for their work. For anyone considering a creative degree, whether that's fine arts, digital art, or art education, UNT goes above and beyond for its students.

(WARNING: Long review coming through) Let me start this review off on a positive note: The campus is very easy to get around, and while it may be a bit of a pain walking in sub-zero degree temps, everything is relatively close by, and they gave me a lot of options as to where I wanted to live on campus (Freshmen have a choice of 3 different res-halls, one in front of the arts center, which was where I was at, another by the gym, and another, well, no idea as I don't have the campus map in front of... Read More me, but moving on...) About half of the staff I encountered were very friendly and knew me by name whilst I was still going there; right off the top of my head, I recall my adviser was extremely easy to talk to. But hey, don't think I'm done here just yet. Onto the bad: To get the ball rolling, the dorm I was in was extremely dingy and compact. The one night (yes, you read that correctly, I only lasted TWO DAYS here) I was moving my stuff in, my roommate and I could hear the people next door like the walls were made out of tin foil, and while they weren't being party animals or anything, it was ridiculous. I had to put my WHOLE DRESSER into my closet space just so I'd have enough room to rearrange my space. Keep in mind, I didn't bring a lot with me, just a couple duffle bags, a few smaller rubbermaid boxes full of school supplies and winter clothing, and a guitar. Worse yet, the janitorial staff are busy cleaning the only bathrooms in the building AROUND 9:00 IN THE MORNING, and I had to wait about an hour at least before I was able to use the restroom and take a shower, despite the small size of the bathrooms. The next issue, and I know college books are expensive, but Luther's cost of school supplies was approximately $750 for ONE SEMESTER (You can thank both my Art and my German class for the bulk of these expenses). which could pay for one month of rent in Glendale, AZ, just to give you an idea. Moving on, the freshman orientation session (mind you, I've been to a couple at other schools that I was unable to afford attendance) was a complete joke. Other schools take hours out of the day to get the incoming students prepared for campus life, basic necessities such as student ID and meal planning, and help them sign up for clubs and student organizations, whereas here at Luther, the main focus seemed to be on things to do in Decorah and treating us incoming freshmen as children, giving us the metaphorical "naughty index finger" and telling us what we can and can't do on campus, as well as scolding those of us who didn't have any prior knowledge of the ridiculous amount of online programs we had to sign up for before the very next day when classes started (most schools only have one, or two at most, Luther has four). They failed to mention necessities and how to obtain them, such as the laundry card I only found out about in conversation with my roommate, and the mandatory student ID needed to get into the res-halls after the faceless ones expired (mine literally expired 2 days after orientation as I was hauling my stuff back to the family car after getting a full refund on my tuition). Bottom line, this school does NOTHING to prepare incoming students for their experience. To add insult to injury, the professor I ended up with for my art class (NOT my adviser) was rude and obnoxious. The dining hall's food is frozen and reheated trash. There is absolutely nothing to do outside of class, unless you belong to the Lutheran faith, in that case they have a chapel. There are no clubs to my knowledge, and it's extremely difficult to have any sort of social life (obviously studies are the main concern, but human interaction is part of the college experience, which Luther severely LACKS). In short, if you enjoy feeling lost, isolated, and completely ripped off, come to Luther, by all means! And enjoy a Norse-head cookie while you're at it (honestly those were probably the best thing about the whole college haha)

A lot of the professors were retired professionals whose knowledge was transferrable from older, obsolete media. While general concepts were taught, a lot of the information wasnt directly transferrable to contemporary media and business strategies. Additionally, political ideology of said professors always seemed to find its way into discussions, creating unnecessary division amongst the class and created tension not conducive to thoughtful conversation. Overall, I was able to learn from their experiences... Read More and apply to my own skills. But those skills ended up taking me into a career in technology skills, not necessarily even related to my degree or courses I took. In essence, the media school taught me more about what I didn't want to pursue in media than helping me find my actual passion in media.

For everyone considering going here, DON'T. RUN FAR, FAR AWAY! The education is subpar and MICA is only relying on it's reputation for coercing young and impressionable adults into it's overpriced programs. There is no kind of networking or help with your career at all and the career development office is a joke. If you get into the fine arts majors, be prepared to make less art and spend more time just talking about art and art history. Oh, and if you prefer figurative art, be prepared to be ignored... Read More as there is an intense bias towards abstraction. While most professors are incredibly pretentious, there are some who are good quality. Unfortunately, MICA's administration continues to be more greedy and tries to stuff up classrooms with 20+ students to 1 teacher, diluting the quality of their teaching. Furthermore, most of these students are international students who don't have a good grasp of English, so teachers are wasting their time with these students who aren't comprehending what the professor is saying for the sake of MICA's marketing team to be able to sell their program to the rich families overseas who don't need any kind of financial aid! Oh, and after you graduate, be prepared to either go home and live with your parents like all my friends did. The other alternative is, like me, stay in one of the worst cities in America where there's no hope for you making a career in art.
