I feel this school was untruthful of what they offered. I had a good experience there because I made it work for me. Not to say that I didn't have a lot of challenges. While i was there I had many run ins at the dorms with the house mother or what ever she called herself. Awful lady. Had issues with the Financial Aid dept.if that is what you want to call it is was like a closet always a mess and no one seemed to really know what was going on. I think there was really only two teachers that i really ever learned something from. The rest were there to let you know how good they were and how lucky we were they were teaching us. One teacher even required us to buy is book that he wrote what a joke. 2 of my friends were mugged on the way to school and ended up in the hospital. i saw my share of lots of drugs, prostitutes and other scary things. I realized very quickly that my education was very lacking. The fact that i had a degree got me a interview but I really learned how to design from actually working in the field and having real professions teach me. I have to say the students going to AI of fort lauderdale at the same time as us were getting a even worse education we would compare notes we were happy at the time for our choice. Unless you were talking about the dorms nobody liked that place. I can't speak about either school today when I graduated I left and never looked back. i did meet some really good students and people i would still call friends today that was one plus.
