What Students Are Saying

i won't hide the truth here. you will work harder than you ever have in your life. but, that's what you need to learn to do in order to be successful in such a competitive business. you'll find yourself creating miracles out of nothing, and learn how to do so in a responsible, environmentally friendly way!
Alan from Bradenton, FL
You won't need to do that much studying per se, but you will have to put in a LOT of work. Every subject has at least 8 big projects, and you'll basically hit the ground running, not stopping until the final day.
Christian from Puerto Rico
Ringling is intense - no need to sugar coat it. It's a ton of work, very little sleep, a few tears, but in the end, you have phenomenal work to be able to put into your portfolio and show to future employers! The teachers work you to the bone, but at the same time, they are very understanding and give a little slack when needed.
Karrie from Wapakoneta, OH
If you work hard, you'll make good grades. Don't expect to be able to do every project last minute, because teachers really can tell when you've done the entire project the night before. It'll kill your GPA.

Ringling College is work. Look forward to many all-nighters and little to no downtime during class. You gotta work and Ringling gives you more than enough to do.
