MICA is a great College. The cost is the worst thing about my school. It is very expensive to attend this prestegious college.

Nothing can be worse than seeing students who take art lightly; people who take it merely as an escape from academics. Not only the atmosphere gets destructed, but also art becomes a tool to get themselves to a better career instead of really investigating the philosophy of it.

The worst thing about my school is where it is located. I like the city of Baltimore well enough, but the crime rate is rather high. There is always a new story about a mugging on campus, and quite frankly it is kind of terrifying.

The worst thing about the Maryland Institute is its location in the center of Baltimore. With any school located in a city it has it's crime flare ups which on occasion finds it's way into the school's vicinity.

The worst thing about my school is the cost of education. Tuition itself is $17,000 + per school year. Aside from tuition we are also REQUIRED to pay a few thousand for items such as "STUDENT ACTIVITIES (non-refundable, mandatory payment even if we never participate)", "TECHNOLOGY", etcetera. With all the other items a full school year at the Maryland Institute College of Art actually costs something more like $43,000 and that is NOT including materials and supplies, rent, food, and transportaion. This school is very, very expensive.

There is nothing that I dislike about my school. Something that is difficult for me to handle is the cost. Maryland Institute College of Art is very, very expensive and is something that I cannot pay for on my own. They offer great scholarships, but it is still not enough. In the end, though, the cost is worth the education there.

Honestly, there isn't anything negative to say about MICA. It is one of the best art schools in the United Satates.

The gym facilities. This may seem like a wierd answer, but seriously just because we go to an art school doesn't mean we have to give up on being healthy. It is a known and prove fact that exercise reduces stress levels. I only wish MICA had a larger gym, or even access to a near by pool.

The school is still adjusting to on campus housing. There are many small groups of friends but there are not many opportunities to meet the entire student body

The worst thing about the school is probably that we have a lot of truly amaziing classes but only so much space in them but if the classes were any bigger they wouldn't be as individualized and good.
