Review of Columbus College of Art & Design

from Middletown, OH

Describe your college in three sentences.

Great environment, and everyone is so crazy and wonderful. It's a lot of fun going here, but be prepared to work. This is not a push over school, but the education and job opportunities are totally worth the stress.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Do NOT procrastinate! It is very easy to fall behind, just put in the work and you'll find out just how far you can go and then go farther.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

I've only been here a semester, but I've already learned so much! Most of the teachers are amazing, After years of struggling on my own trying to learn perspective, I learned it in a matter of days!

Describe the dorm life at your college.

For the most part, I've had great roommates and have taken to spending most my time on our floor lobby with all my friends. If you have a problem with one of your mates, then just talk to the staff. They are here for you and will do their best to make sure you have the best dorm experience you can.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

It's either hit or miss with the chicken, but the mac n' cheese is divine. They have options for everyone, there's always something you'll enjoy. My only problems with it is that you can't use your swipes for other people and they close relatively early.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

There are so many school clubs you'll always have something to do. There are also plenty of get-togethers for activities and you can always just chill with friends on the floor lobbies.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

Good lord is it expensive, but if you can survive the stress, sleep deprivation, and loans then go here. The education is top notch and there are lots of job opportunities awaiting you after graduation.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

We have an annual drag show, really the whole school is unique so I don't know what to consider as unusual traditions here.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

The school helps you to get out of your shell and become confident in who you are if you aren't already. Everyone is super nice and welcoming.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

There is so much to do! Sketch club, animation, illustration, philosophy, gay/straight alliance, dodge-ball, comic club, yoga, zumba, game club, pretty much anything you can think of. And if it doesn't exist you can go create it.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

None here.

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

Security is always there for you making sure you are safe, on or nearby campus.
