Statistical Analyzer: DUPLICATE,

A lot of the people here are trying to place the blame on anything but themselves for their failures in life. College is what you make of it, it's up to you to manage deadlines, seek help when necessary, and to grow as an artist. If you aren't going to put in the extra effort, this school (and every other art school) is going to do nothing for you. Also, keep an open mind. Many young artists come in thinking that they already know a lot/have a lot of talent, and 90% of the time this is not true. Accept critique from your peers and teachers as much as you possibly can.

One aspect of MIAD that I really like is how small it is, you really get to know the student body and all of the teachers on first-name basis. This also makes it very easy to go up and talk to your teachers one-on-one. While I have noticed that it's hard to get a good critique of your work in class, if you make the extra effort to go up to your teacher after class you will get a great response. Plus you'll get on their good side because they know you actually care. That's the biggest thing at MIAD- even if you aren't the most talented, as long as you show that you are passionate and CARE about your art, teachers will bend over backwards to help you. Sure, there are some pretty bad teachers (especially during the foundations year), but once you get into your majors classes the teaching improves.

The foundations year is awful, they make you do a ton of busywork that tests your technical skills, and it's boring. They are trying to weed out those who don't have what it takes, so try to stick through until sophomore year. Sophomore year is hell compared to your first year, but it's worth it because you're taking classes that you actually enjoy (if you're in the right major).
