Hey guys, i’m going to college soon, and well as you probably guessed im into web design, programming, graphics and animations. I was just wondering if you guys know about any GOOD college? Money is no problem (as i know some can cost a fortune), i just want to get into a good college. Please post links if there is a website and any personal experience (if you are/have going/gone to that school). Thanks a lot! ---

If you are into design, then I would go to an art / design school. Where are you looking to go? East Coast, West Coast, Uk? I looked in to the Savannah College of Art and Design. I think it’s on of the better design schools. Good Luck ---

I go to The Art Institute and I consider it good. I attended another art school as well, but it wasn’t that great. I like The Art Institue much better. I’m not sure where you’re from, but they have lots of locations spread out in the US. ---

i am in the same boat with you (wait… theres a boat(-: ) no really i was looking at a course that would have cost me $2000+ but they \*\*\*\*ed me about so there not getting there money so i am doing some part-time (got to work) courses in Dreamweaver and Flash also HTML and Java script then i might do something like Hardware and Software, But the best bit is becuase i am under 19 i am getting all this FREE… LOL i love the UK:thumb: o… anyway… if you like web design do what i did and look for things that focus just on that then wirte to some places and ask for jobs, companys are always looking for staff. i have 2 near me that have like 20+ people and they just give you a site to do and you do it, none of this self employed \*\*\*\*, that is to much like hard work. so when i am done in about a 8-10 months i should be in a job that paying 25k+ (35+ dollers) PA. and as far as i am aware thats not half bad:thumb: considering i will be 18. (porsche 911, here i come(-: ) ---

i’ve been looking at the RIT (Rochester Institute of Technology) or Cooper Union in the New York state, haven’t got any feedback though… Someone on the phorums attended a great Canadian school but it was really expensive for non-canadian… Search the threads… ---
