I just finished my Foundation year and would have to say it was a tough year. I am going into fine art and com art. I think that everything that happened good or bad happened for a reason this last year. I look back and there were times that i wish i was not there but that was only because there was so much i needed to do and so little time. Life is hard at times even in school. I know some people who hated the year and want to get out and i know others who find it a blessing. I feel that foundation year was all about seeing who can handle it.The ones that hated it obviously could nto handle it and should get out. I dont want to be around people who are constantly negitive. I mean there are classes you should not get any homework in and those are the ones you get the most! I will not lie it is a difficult school but I would rather be constantly busy and learning than in a school that constantly teaches you the basics! I started off with no friends and through out the year made some great friends with aweosme memories. If your thinking about going i would visit the campus first. Meet the teachers. Sit in a class or two and get a feel for the school. Its different than a normal college and is hard core. Otis was my last choice in schools but once I visited all the school and talked to faculty i knew OTIS is where i belong. I hope this helps you.
