Another school that specializes in game design and game art is Full Sail University in Florida, which is closer to you.
However, I have to be direct and honest with you here -- if the spelling, grammar, and level of writing in your question is typical, you have a lot of work to do before anyone at a game company would take you seriously. You don't come across as someone who is well educated.

There's multiple answers to this depending on what area of game development/design you're interested in. I would not recommend this school, but you might want to look at Full Sail University since they have tracks in both graphic design for games as well (which is what I'm sensing you're leaning towards) as game development (meaning using computer code to create games). To save you a bit of time, here's a sample of the lower level classes from their Game Art Bachelor's degree class title list:
Creative Presentation
Psychology of Play
Technology in the Entertainment and Media Industries
English Composition I
3-D Foundations
Fundamentals of Art I
Model Creation
Fundamentals of Art II
Shading and Lighting
2-D Animation
Project and Portfolio I: 3-D Arts
Career Module I: Personal Branding
3-D Animation
Art History
Project and Portfolio II: 3-D Arts
Career Module II: Career Research
You might also want to check out Scratch to see if game development is something you're interested in. Scratch is simplistic looking, but you can do some pretty complicated programming in Scratch.
Either pathway though: game development and the graphic design are going to require you to learn to use and understand programming languages to some extent. So you might want to look to see if your school or local library has an account to sites like Team Treehouse, Lynda, Udemy, or other online sites that you can learn how to code from. Of the list, I'd personally recommend Team Treehouse as they start at the absolute basics and work up from there.
I hope this helps some.
