hey sir. currently a student at ringling atm. But I did apply to boston at one point and got a full tour of the school. and if you ask me, it it no place you want to do art. The building is made of almost cold steel and in my opinion, is the wrong enviornment for good inspiration. I do have a friend that goes to ringling now that transferred from scad, and he could tell you that scad is some place no artist would want to go. but then again. youd have to get his opinion on that. In my opinion, ringling seems like the best choice, and best choice out of any. I looked at them all. Hope this helps, even though it was based mostly on opinion

thanks for yer opinions. the school in boston is the closest, so i'll be able to visit, the other 2 i might not be able too. i might visit the Cleveland Istitue of art too

hey,
im a student at the cleveland institute of art. i dont know much about the other schools so i can't compare them. but i can tell you my opinions about cleveland. you want to transfer in to illustration? illustration here is pretty lacking in my opinion...quite a few people choose to major in Drawing instead(myself included). but that all depends on what youre interested in. the school also has a great industrial design program and a technology/animation/video major thats starting to blow up. nice facilities and alot of work being done to the school over the next year.
its worth taking a tour...
email me or PM if you have any questions
