WITH COLLEGE D:

I'm about to enter my senior year of high school and I've been doing a lot of thinking this summer about what art colleges or whatevs I want to apply to. So far this is my list:

1. SCAD - Savannah College of Art & Design
2. RISD - Rhode Island School of Design
3. Ringling College of Art & Design -- (edit) I decided to just go ahead & apply because it seems to have a pretty good program and I do like Florida. XD
4. UNT - North Texas University (um, this is more like my backup school in case I can't make it out of this state for one reason or another, though I've heard its art program is pretty cool).

Aside from those, I've been pretty confused. I want to have at least four or five choices; but the problem is, I don't know which schools to put in those last two spaces. I've looked at dozens, but honestly I'm having a lot of trouble figuring out just how good their art programs are; I've had universities sell themselves to me and really make themselves sound great, but after some examination, have been exposed as rather unimpressive. u_u I'm totally paranoid. So, my request is that y'all share some of the colleges you are attending for art or are applying to and why they impress you. If you happen to attend any of the choices I've listed above, I'd greatly appreciate your feedback and experiences at those places.

By the way, I'm planning to study either Graphic Design or Illustration when I go to college so I want suggestions that have programs in both those areas and a good reputation in both.

Thank you so much for your help in advance!!
