Beware this school, it is not all it may appear to be. My daughter applied to the school for fine art and asked for photography as a secondary program secondary program is mandatory After paying tuition fees and buying the various expensive books and supplies my talented and accomplished daughter found herself in a secondary program of jewelry making , that had expensive materials and was of no interest to her. She had done some jewelry making in high school and had sold some pieces but it was not of interest and she was well aware of this. Her regular classes in writing had her writing sentences at the level she had in grade 8 or 9 . She went to the administration with her issues on several occasions parents may not have any communication with the school regardless their financial commitments but the school refused to change her courses or advance her into more appropriate courses. Beyond the boredom and the disinterest in the classes offered she could not justify wasting her time. She had left a full time job that allowed her to explore and create her art at a reasonable wage and was loosing time and money with little or no gain. It was my hope that she would be able to broaden her art and her vision for her future at this school but that was not possible here. I only hope that she will not discount further education because of this experience. I am disappointed in the lack of support and fact that they took the tuition even though she spent less than a two months at their school in courses she never wanted in the first place. Sad representation of higher education.
Graphic Design, Illustration and Character Design all are a dying profession that is slowly being replaced by A.I.nnAlso the amount of effort you have to put in for your liberal studies classes is just crazy.nnPlease don't bother coming. Just do yourself a favour and don't bother.nSo many go into this field, only to not find a job because of all the competition.
I have wanted to go here for years know ever since my sister mentioned this place I am not old enough to go here but thus sounds like an amazing place full of amazing people cant wait to come here when I am older it will hopefully be awesome and I will have some of my best years here and I will learn to become what I have always wanted to be...a cartoonist
Offers really unique courses compared to other post secondary institutions. Professors are all very nice, and campus is fun to be on.
