The Savannah College of Art and Design
“It is extremely difficult to get larger scholarshipsAverageArt & Design Department
It is extremely difficult to get larger scholarships than awarded in your first year. Most of the people working for scad, excluding professors, are border-line incompetent and direct you back and forth across campus to complete paperwork etc. At least 5 art history classes are required to graduate, leaving most feeling that they have not recieved enough elective classes in their major. Portfolios are not always required to get in so the student body is growing to fast for scad to accomodate them properly and are placing students 3 deep in dorm rooms that should only have 2 max. (although there are bathrooms in each dorm room which is awesome)

“Some of the classes were pointless but theDesign Arts - Industrial Design/Graphic Design/etc
Some of the classes were pointless but the time slacking in the stupid courses ballances well with the courses that you work your butt off in and it pays off in the end. There are tons of cool professors but an equal amount of terrible ones. Just take the classes with the good ones. The first two years are the worst and most suckiest so try not to worry about what people say who haven't gotten to far. Its tough and slackers who make it usually don't like it in the end because they don't get to far. I only knew about for our five people who in my last quarter at SCAD really put in all their effort to learn. Most stuff is learned outside of the classroom but the prof's if they're really great give you the resources.
