Academy of Art University Top Questions

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

Jaimee

My major is Fashion Design, and i wish i learned to sew before i came here. I had a sewing class this past semester and it was a real challenge. I do like a challenge, i only wish i knew more technique, so i can be ahead of the game and be able to follow really easily. I will just have to keep practicing for next year.

Erica

I came to this school as a transfer student. I'm actually very glad that I did, because my previous school was film based and the Academy is digital based. I am really glad that I had the traditional base for my photography education before jumping right into the digital world.

Akouto

How expensive it was.

Courtney

I have not been there yet.

Dustin

This School is well acredited and as a perspective student I am very pleased with what I have seen so far.

Paloma

I wish I had known about the time wasted on the shuttle between classes at different sites.

Hugo

I wish that I can learn more about art, and I want to be a great animator.

Cybil

I wish I knew how the online teachers? prior employment motivated them to become teachers.

Victoria

I wish I had known how much time and money were required.

Vanessa

I wish I had known how to be more sociable before I entered college. When you're in a new city, in a new school, in a new place to call home it gets lonely without friends to spend time with, to call up, to lean on. If I could I would have told myself to open up a little, and perhaps learn to shut my mouth before anything innapropriate fell out.
