@nanava Sorry I didn’t see this until today. Hope you had a good visit. Husband and D1 went down and really enjoyed the presentations (although they said the brunch wasn’t very well organized).

D1 is also an introvert and she really loves the vibe of the kids there. I get the sense that out of her 3 finalist schools, MICA kids are definitely her people. And same thing re the student art displayed.

I understand your thoughts re animation – that’s sort of where my son’s interests are headed but more into Concept Art specifically for film, gaming and animation. And I haven’t heard about masters either. I think animation is much more job/professional oriented (much like graphic design). Also the field and tech changes so much that it seems like you learn a lot via internships too. Has your daughter seen that the animation software Studio Ghibli uses has been released as a shareware? My son spent all weekend playing around with it.

@Mamelot Yep we legit have the spreadsheet all filled out and that last column is waiting on MICA! Husband understood them as saying it will be mailed out Tuesday…argh the waiting is killing me!!
