Academy of Art University

First of all, the school's a big rip off. For what the average student pays in fees you could produce a film with. In my personal experience the students fee raise every semester and the teacher are working professionals right, people who are suppose to guide you to a brighter career, they are the main problem, I was not in a teaching or learning friendly environment, my teacher were my job market competitors and class was conducted as so. By the time i was burnt out drained out and $30,000 in the hole, I was expelled for paying them in change, grant it was $1,125 in CHANGE but i was expelled on a technicality for being unprofessional. Now if a school can expel an honour roll student for paying in change i would hate to see what they are really capable of when they get more power. My advice, go to the school, network, meet new people, if you get a job before you graduate take it, because your degree at this institution is worth less than the toilet paper currently in your bathroom, good luck future filmmaker and big dreams, don't get burned by this school like i did in 97' ask around cause m
