@Mimi2018 - if Florida is a 2nd choice for your daughter, she might also consider UCF in Orlando. I know they have a great art/design school (SVAD) with an excellent graphic design program. Again, admission to the major after portfolio review sophomore year. The advantage of UCF is that they actually DO give OOS scholarships, assuming certain stats. Again - state school so plan for a 5-year stint but they are good about accepting local CC credit if your D comes home for summer and takes summer school at the local CC so maybe that can be accelerated. We visited UCF and it was my kid’s 2nd choice and relatively affordable due to the scholarship they gave her.

Good luck to your daughter!
