Small enough to focus. Make sure you find an internship early. You need experience and a great portfolio. Visual Art degrees don't get jobs with resumes, focus on building your portfolio. GET AN ADVISOR EARLY AND GET GUIDANCE.

I've been here less than a week and I've already learned how to make a movie in photoshop and a still life, not to mention learning stuff in my general classes as well. It is really expensive, but you learn a lot, and there are extensive scholarships. It's totally worth it.

MCAD is a private college, a private ART college so yes it is quite spend-y. But I do believe it is worth the price to go to a school like MCAD with it's staff and faculty who have worked in their respective fields who have hands on experience and can use that knowledge to teach their students, thus preparing them a little better. On top of the wonderful faculty the dorms for MCAD are all located on campus, there is a Bistro which has a wide range of delicious and nutritious food, there are several restaurants within walking distance of campus, the school provides weekly trips to nearby grocery stores for students living on campus. Also on several occasions the school provides free food during events held at MCAD.

It's definitely worth the money. MCAD is one of those places that you have to put in the effort to get what you want out of it. If you're being lazy and not getting involved in school events than you shouldn't be there.

MCAD is worth every penny!
