Having only finished my freshmen year, I have only learned what Ringling taught me for their 1st year CORE Studio program, which is drawing (still lifes, etc), figure drawing, 3D studio, 2D art, color, history, and others based on your major. Mine was Traditional Animation and History of Animation because I'm a Computer Animation major. BTW, Ringling is generally referred to as the best art school in the country and has the world's best animation program, according to 3D magazine.

    Ringling College of Art and Design seems like a great school. Everything the school has to offer seems so neat. I hope after I get out of Community College that I someday attend this College.

    The school campus is a beautiful place. The workload depends on the majors. It is well worth the cost.

    Ringling has a beautiful campus. It's very easy to fit in with other students. If you don't work hard, don't expect to make good grades.

    You have a lot of resources within your reach here. It's painstaking work, but the pay off in progress for a dedicated student makes it worth it. If you aren't ready to push yourself or you need a significant social life, don't go here.

They offer amazing career services, programs and majors for artists of many backgrounds. Overall, RCAD is an art school for the visual artist that doesn't plan on starving to make a living.

    Ringling is a great school. The campus is really nice, not spread around the city like most art schools. The curriculum is great and was specifically made to teach all the tricks of the trade.

    A very clean learning environment full of professors who thrive to make you creative as you can be. Plenty of resources available. Plenty to do and stay busy.
