The Montserrat College of Art

Date: Sep 18 2008
Major: Fine Arts - Painting/Sculpture/Photography/etc (This Major's Salary over time)
For the cost of it all tuition, materials, day to day living, this school offers nothing in the end. Great if you're looking to go to school to pass time and have fun. Graduates either continue to more schooling, get hired at the school, or become teachers or photographers. If your parents didn't cover the price tag good luck paying back any loans on that salary. And because academic classes are overly laid back as not to distract from studio classes the education consists of no job skills other than the trade one's concentrated on (painting, printmaking, graphic design, etc.). It is very easy to get involved in anything here because it's so small! If you start any clubs, radio shows, or sports activities, half the people involved will be your roommates. But the whole school of all off 200 students will be familiar with what you present to it through artwork and activities. But don't pat yourself on the back quite yet, remember that if there was an actual student body to interact with or homework comparable to that of a typical college these so called supporters would have something better to do. This is my third semester here and I will be transferring to a state school next semester. I took college classes part time while finishing high school and that educated me more than Monsterrat did full time!
