I have so far only completed one year at this school, but I hope this review might be useful to prospective freshmen.

The curriculum at Otis is very structured and guided. Like many have said, do not come to this school if you are not serious. It can be very challenging and overwhelming in terms of both the amount of work you receive and the tasks themselves. The Foundation (freshman) experience at Otis is excellent. The different course you are required to take teach you important concepts and skills that overlap with each other and the almost all of the professors I had were very experienced at driving home what they wanted you to get out of your work. It was my impression that they are very dedicated to your success as professionals.

If you are a serious student, your experience can be very rewarding. Be aware that it can get very tough and many slacker students will be weeded out in the process; the classes are long, also, and demand a lot of focus from you. Staying on top of things will benefit you and earn you respect from your professors.

My biggest disappointment was the social atmosphere. I didn't quite feel "at home" at Otis, and the student activities are nearly nonexistant. It can get quite lonely when you are consumed with work and there are no extracurriculars things to do (or if you simply do not have the time you can get a little on edge!). That is why it is important to be resourceful and find things to do around town. The students in my section were fantastic, but we still did not really see each other outside of class because we were so busy. Make sure you make friends though and find some other things to do or you will die!!!

I will be entering the Digital Media department of Otis, which has a great reputation for what it teaches you. Toy Design and Fashion are also considered to be excellent, and all three are regarded to be the most difficult majors at this school. All in all I am satisfied with the education I received in the Foundation experience and expect the same for the following years.
