So how many of you are applying to an art school after high school? Which schools and why!

Have you guys heard any good things about The Art Institute?


Well, I'm pretty conflicted about The Art Insititute. Sure, their pamplet designs draw you in, but any time I have ever needed an answer from them that required some substance, I have never really got one.
But I only talked to a rep from Houston who came from my school, so it could be different. It really depends on what you want from a school, like if you want a more traditional education in whatever major you are in, the art institutes may not fit you, they are designed to get you out and about as quick as possible.

Sounds about right.


As I explained the original maker via pm, some art institutes are way better, more established, and have better resources than some others. And while I attend one, I would definitely encourage anyone who is willing to spend the money at an Art Institute to look into more established and renowned schools first, especially the ones that have already been mentioned in this thread.

i know, i was so disappointed.
which ai do you go to? and do you know which ones are better?
i basically have a choice between dallas or houston, and maybe seattle.
i would prefer dallas to houston because dallas is closer.

and today i looked at RISD. fell in love. but i doubt i can go all the way to rhode island.
