What do you think is the right choice for me?

Question

Ok, i want to do Media Arts at Ai Art Institute, but i hear it's not really a great school for the high price. I've been looking around but haven't really found any thing yet, i want to do Media Arts so once i'm done school i can go on looking for a job, but i hear that some people won't even want me because i'm from Ai Art Institute, so can someone please help me or refer me to better schools out there i don't know about.

Please help.

Answer 1

If your grades are excellent almost any ivy league school has a good media arts program. if you are an average student you may find a better school than Ai (they look like a trade school which is a euphemism for a school that teaches nothing and charges 16K [which is the limit for government grant recognition for trade schools.]) I went to trade school for computer programming and they barely told us what a database was. I couldn't get a job and I was out $5,000. (I wasn't poor enough to get a 100% grant.)

Look for a better school, even if you were a lousy student in high school, cause trade schools are a rip-off, at least in my experience.

Answer 2
