I WOULD SAY FIDM IS THE PERFECT PLACE TO HELP SOMEONE WHO REALLY WANTS TO WORK HARD TO BE WHATEVER IT IS THEY ARE MAJORING IN. NETWORKING IS CONSTANTLY REMINDED AND IS NECESSARY TO "BE SOMEBODY." FIDM HAS FAR TOO MANY CONNECTS TO LIST, THEY WON'T TELL YOU ALL OF THEM UNLESS YOU ASK AND ARE SPECIFIC.

DON'T GO IF YOU THINK ITS A CAKEWALK, THE CLASSES MAY BE A TAD ON THE EASY SIDE, BUT ITS THE CAREER YOU WANT IN THE END THAT MATTERS SO YOU'D BETTER LEARN ALL YOU CAN, ESPECIALLY FOR THE $40,000 YOUR PAYING TO ATTEND. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY PURSUING A DESIGN CAREER IF YOUR NOT TALENTED EITHER. IF YOU DON'T HAVE THE TALENT & PASSION FOR WHAT YOU WANT TO GET INTO, ITS GONNA BE A SOB STORY WHEN YOU CAN'T GET A JOB IN THE INDUSTRY AFTER YOU GRADUATE. I HAD A LOT OF GOOD FRIENDS AT FIDM THAT WERE CRAPPY DESIGNERS AND ARE STILL STRUGGLING AND EVEN SOME THAT ENDING UP DOING SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT, LIKE NURSING AND COMMUNITY SERVICE.
