[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC is interested. Any feedback on what this is like as a college experience?

MICA?
RISD?
UsC?[/quote]

USC is not an art school.

MICA - I’ve heard they are having financial problems
RISD - traditional, intense, competitive, stingy with aid and has like a 17% admit rate so you’d better be damn good with a portfolio to match. Has a partnership with Brown.
Pratt - highly regarded, also competitive, have heard that some programs are pretty cutthroat 
SAIC - very conceptual/experimental, great for a student who is self motivated and wants to be able to experiment between disciplines.
Cleveland Institute of Art - Tiny, hut could be great for a student who wants more individual attention. Has a partnership with Case Western so students have access to both schools. Also, undergraduates get their own studio space.
Ringling - pipeline to Disney/Pixar if your kid is interested in digital art/animation/illustration, also a tiny school but the student work we saw on our visit blew us away.

Those are the only art schools I have experience with. CalArts is another highly regarded one, but I don’t know much about it except that it’s very good, very competitive, expensive and hard to get into.[/quote]
