Review of Institute of American Indian and Alaska Native Culture and Arts Development
from Santa Fe, NM
Do you feel you’re learning a lot?
I have learned so much from this school. It is the ONLY Native American art school in the world! At IAIA, all students are equally assured of the best opportunities for critical, professional and cultural development provided from a Native perspective.
Do you enjoy the experience at your school?
I love going to school here! The campus itself is in the hills of Santa Fe where you get a 360 degree view of the mountains. IAIA is a close community where everyone practically knows each other. I have met so many amazing people here!
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
It's not pricey, about 12,000 a year, but goes above and beyond in the degrees that it offers.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Be outgoing as you can. This is how you meet friends and connections. Grab the college experience by the horns and take advantage of every opportunity but don't wear yourself out. The best advice I can give is to be as organized and prioritized as possible.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Artists, creative visionaries, business moguls, activists, Native Americans (but you don't have to be to apply), writers, museum and history studies, liberal studies.
