A small cozy school for students interested in learning any form of art. Based more on classical art than digital, but offer excellent programs in both, simply have more in fine arts. Very supportive staff and friendly environment.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
It's a BFA program, meaning you spend more time focusing on your art, rather than rounded studies. Require very little to no humanities or other classes apart from studios. Very important to be motivated to focus on art and not just doodle through.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
Very important to stay up on assignments and classes. The studio hours are long and there are a few a week. Good for students who can sit down and paint for hours, otherwise if you can't sit still and work, the time will drag on for a very long time.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
Very nice dorms. Spacious and are essentially legitimate houses; with roommates. Full kitchen, which means no cafeteria, but it's great to get used to living independently rather than depending on a meal plan. Everything is within walking distance of the dorms, so food shopping isn't hard and there is even a lovely beach a few blocks away.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
Excellent cafes and restaurant near by. A stop&shop within a mile.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
Beach, mall not too far(need a car though, you can walk to the beach though). There are cafes and bars and essentially it's a small town community.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
A bit overpriced at first glance, but between all the scholarships they provide and financial aid they assist you with, a rather reasonable school for the prices.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
People more interested in focusing on art rather than a rounded education.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
Not many since the school is small, but they're all interesting and well taken care of.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
24/7 security staff, that you can call at any time for any reason what so ever. The campus is really safe, but even if you feel a bit nervous about walking from the school building to your dorm later at night, they are required to walk you if you request it. All dorms are no more than a block away from the main building so even then it's nothing to worry about.
