1. Maryland Institute College of Art- great school, infact my top or top 2 choice. both hoffberger school of painting and mount royal school of art are A+ programs.
2. Columbia University- very very hard to get into, and if you get in consider getting no financial aid. Top knotch program and school for access to ny art scene and galleries.
3. School of the Art Institute of Chicago- on my top list....there is a list of over 40 faculty though that changes semesterly which i am unsure about. i am going to visit this school oct. 31st.
4. Yale University- similiar to columbia in terms of financial aid and chances of getting accepted. similar benefits.
5. Temple University (Tyler School of Art)- shared studios! huge downer! otherwise pretty a-okay school and program. they partner with risd a lot.
6. PennDesign (Unv. Penn)- could probably get a lot of aid. know a graduate who got a full ride to upenn.
7. BROOKLYN COLLEGE....Not sure about this one either
8. SUNY New Paltz....Not sure about this one either
9. American Univ....Not sure about this one either
10. HUNTER COLLEGE- good program, inexpensive...but very large. studios are great. not on my list bc i dont want to be in nyc.
11. University of Connecticut---not sure about
12. School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston- have looked into their program but dont know a lot or dont know anyone that has gone there. i have it bookmarked but its not on my list.
13. SVA....expensive, rare chance of getting in and getting aid.
14. Carnegie Mellon University School of Art....interesting 3 year program. it has been on and off my list. not sure about living in pittsburgh....but they are a great school and i would re-add them if i didnt have better schools ahead of them.
15. NYU....not sure either
