CalArts in Los Angeles, founded by Walt Disney himself and in close proximity to The Walt Disney Studios and Nickelodeon, also in Southern California; Laguna College of Art and Design, Rhode Island School of Design (RISD), Ringling College of Art and Design and Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) are good places to check out if you want to attend an art school as opposed to a "regular" college or university. If you'd like that kind of atmosphere instead, take a look at USC, UCLA, Carnegie Mellon in Pittsburgh, Rochester Institute of Technology. When considering any college, in addition to them having the program/major that interests you, remember to consider where in the country the school is, what the weather is, what the size of the student body is, what the food is like, what the dorms are like, do they have clubs and extracurriculars that interest you, how strong their alumni connections are...you're going to be there for four years so make sure to have a sense for all the things that are important to you! Best of luck.in your search and selection process and a final word; fill out the FAFSA with your parents as close to the portal opening date (October 1st,) as you can and then start searching for scholarship opportunities. There is money out there to be had!

Hello! I have no personal experience to help you with this. If anybody answered, it would likely be opinions based on schools they went to. Just find a school that you believe is nice, and go with it. Research the schools you are looking into just a bit, like looking at reviews, activities, costs, degrees. Then you decide yourself. I don't want to give you a bad college!
