Bureaucracy, politics, and drama mixed in a tiny school. This place boasts about how several "famous" artists have attended their school, all while giving students a terrible schedule. You can only go to this school as a full time student as there is no regard for you or your own time as a human being. It is the only college-level school that I know that fails you based on attendance alone, and not based on your actual assignments. If you have work, forget it. They'll assign morning classes at 8:00am and leave gigantic gaps of empty timeslots, only to have to crawling back to school at 5:00pm.

Oh, and have I mentioned that you cannot transfer your credits?

Forget this mediocre school. If you really want to major in the arts, go to California or Vancouver. Save yourself the headache and your money.
