MCA gives an individualized education. Great for people who prefer a small classroom and teachers that actually care about you. More conceptually based than most other art colleges.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Don't take bad critiques personally, they make you stronger as an artist and help you develop your work.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Tough at first but becomes fun once you get the hang of how everything works.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
The dorms are good but you save more money getting your own apartment off campus
Describe the food and dining at your college.
There is only one place in the school to get food. Its good but I would suggest learning how to cook.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
There is always some event happening in Memphis. Admission is free for MCA students at the Brooks Museum of Art, and at the Memphis Zoo.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
Students are given I.D. badges with and electronic key swipe for entering the school. There is also a shuttle that runs from the dorms to the school at any time. The guards are very friendly and great at their jobs. They would even go out of their way to drive you to your apartment(not part of the school) just to make sure you got home safe. The guards take their job very seriously.
