Suggestion to add five schools.

I noticed that CC has Rhode Island School of Design and Pratt Institute in their college forum,but they have left out five major art schools that are on the rise and are just as strong in different areas. In fact, most of the following schools have a larger enrollment than that of RISD:

They are:

1. Ringling School of Art
2. Calarts: California Institute of the Arts
3. MICA: Maryland Institute Colege of Art
4. SCAD: Savannah College of Art and Design.
5. Academy of Art University ( AAU)

Hello taxguy,

Thanks for the input. I did a quick search of the forums for dedicated threads on these schools and found that both SCAD and MICA seem to have a decent amount of ongoing discussion. We'll take a closer look at the possibility of creating forums for these two schools.

Thanks!

Thanks for your consideration about these Lenitus. I do suggest that you add Ringling School of Art too. It was just rated by a major animation magazine as the number animation school in the US. Since animation is becoming a big deal, this is a school that should also be considered.

Good afternoon. I wanted to bring your attention to the new SCAD forum here:

http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/...ge-art-design/

I can't guarantee we will be able to create forums for MICA or Ringling, but we do appreciate the suggestions.

taxguy...if you're out there, the SCAD forum needs an infusion of activity:

Savannah College of Art and Design - College Confidential
