Student Ratings
Robert Keith Student at This School - Grad Year 2014
SMU has small class sizes and the professors teach the classes.
Peter Ochs Alumnus - Grad Year 1997
Art school with variety of media resources and classes. An independent feel. The independent feel also included again a lack in regard to goal-oriented guidance. But a lot of this experience may have been from being a commuter student.
