Is the Academy of Art University a good school?
Asked by duci1acesI am trying to decide whether or not I go here. I am going for the Industrial Design degree so that I can move into a Product Development major, does anyone have some input as to how good this school is? Also do they have job placement? I am trying not to spend my money stupidly here, I want an accredited school that will potentially land me a great career. If anyone could help with some feedback that would be great!

Academy of Art University is getting a lot of (good) attention. Since it became fully accredited this last year, I consider it a very good school that provides a lot of opportunities. The campus is spread across the heart of San Francisco - occupying many buildings, not just on one plot of land. Job placement depends on the major from what I remember on the tour, but the bonus about going there is that many of the professors are actually working in the field that they teach (not just teaching), so many can provide connections or tips if you make effort to talk to them. You should look into contacting the school and scheduling a tour (if possible), they're willing to show you everything you need to be satisfied. I'm considering going there for my masters, so for the last few years I've been looking into it as well. Hope that helped
