    CCA is expensive. But I'd like to say its worth it. Students are pushed to the limit so that they become the best in the field. Its not well known, but CCA is a great school. (Its on the Forbes list of Top 60 Global Design Schools)

    To be honest, I hate paying so much to go to school. I feel like education should be a free opportunity for everyone, but since that's not the way things work, CCA is as good a school as any other, and better for artists. The campus offers a great place for art, and is like no other college campus you've ever seen. The people are nice and the teachers are working artists as well. If you love art it's a great community of people to be around to further your career.

    It's okay to be unsure about your future when you arrive to CCA. The academic advisors know their stuff and can guide you to the right program.
