“are you an international? if not what is your background, where you grow up, what is your medium, what you mean by fine art?
it is rare, if ever undergrad art kids can be taken seriously at any “art scenes””

No I am not international. I am from Dominican parents but have lived most of my life in Miami, Fl. I want to learn as many mediums as possible though right now my current favorite is graphite. This is my portfolio [Wix.com portfolio created by eduardocrespo based on Artistic Choice](http://www.wix.com/eduardocrespo/portfolio) I do take it very serious and I acknowledge what you are saying about art students. I plan make my art far from the “pretty” ,“cool looking”, and “trendy” art that most people gravitate towards. For those reasons I believe I need an intellectual environment where intellectually rich art is supported and common.

“have you ever try Cooper Union?”

Yes I did. It’s the only one I didn’t get into. I have no formal art instruction in school and have been taught art by an immigrant who doesn’t know much about art institution in the US(except for SAIC which is internationally recognized, he is nevertheless a great artist). For this reason I didn’t have anyone to tell me what they were looking for in the hometest. I wasn’t too upset because I know I want pursued diverse interests which I know they aren’t too broad on.
