<p>That’s more like it csleslie. This son is NOT looking for a game design program. Digital media is broader, and IMHO, a little more job worthy. </p>
<p>gweeta, All suggestions are welcome, besides, I’m sure there are other parents out there that have kids with similar interests. </p>
<p>The definition of Digital media is (according to this [UCF</a> > CAH> Digital Media Department](<a href=“http://www.dm.ucf.edu/about_index.php]UCF”>http://www.dm.ucf.edu/about_index.php) website) “Digital Media fosters a fusion of a well-defined scholastic structure in the arts and sciences with the tools of bleeding edge technology. The Digital Media program continuously reshapes itself to stay on top of the ever evolving technology our students and faculty work and play with every day.”</p>
<p>For him to go OOS, at another State University the criteria should probably be that we can’t get it at one of our State U’s or it’s less expensive or an assured acceptance. Private schools will have different standards because of the potential merit aid. My son is a good student but he will not get into Penn or Carnegie Mellon and we can’t afford $50,000/yr in tuition anyway. We’re not talking about one of the CC students that’s getting 4.0’s and is president of the National Honor society. My son is a 3.0 - 3.5 student that is taking a fairly rigorous course load but getting mostly B’s.</p>
