The Art Institute of Atlanta

If your a photography major avoid this place like the plague. One of the primary teachers of photography is impossible to get a hold of, and so impatient that he utterly fails to explain anything competently. I watched many of my classmates suffer not understanding what he was trying to teach, only to have him blow them off, and try to ignore them when they asked for help.

There's a ton of other costs outside of the kit you'll buy, that they don't tell you about, but are necessities none the less to pass. You'll spend lots of timing renting things, only to have to take them back within 24 hours. This means if you live in the Atlanta area, but not near the school; be prepared for lots of driving, and sitting in traffic.

I had a mathematics teacher that spoke english so poorly, that he simply resorted to pointing and grunting most of the time as a substitute for "teaching". This did not bode well for the students.

This place is a total joke. A vast body of the students are incredibly arrogant, audio majors, and each one thinks they're a professional rapper, or producer. Few are, and there are few bright minds to be found at this school. A money pit, on a wasted education. I wish I could have the time I wasted there back.

Oh ya, if you don't get stabbed at the "shared student housing" in Atlanta, you can always take comfort in the fact that your spending $900 a month on what is essentially a jail cell broad band internet.
