I graduated from the Art Institute two years ago, and I think that the programs and teachers are excellent. The Art Institute I went to was focused on training for a career in the work place. They hammered into you the idea of being on time, of getting your work done thoroughly, and did not let a person graduate until their portfolios made the nessecary requirements. Sometimes people failed more than once before they were able to make the grade and graduate. I went through the Graphic Design program, but I believe that all of the programs are good. They train you on the latest technology, as well. They were always updating their software and technology each quarter to stay cutting edge. I think it's a fine school to attend, and I'm glad I choose to do so.
