Everyone is incredibly hard-working and passionate, it's nice to be surrounded by individuals who have the same level of passion. There is some of the cliche art-school angst in the undergrad. However, regardless, my professors are incredible! They truly care and are incredibly passionate about what they are teaching! There is some of the cliche art-school angst in the undergrad. The party scene sucks, but that was expected considering MICA's reputation and rigorous world-class education.
MICA is generally a pretty good East Coast art school with a long history. The school has many interesting and successful alumni who work in many industries. The professors are genuinely invested in their students and see to their growth, as well as fostering an environment for artists to find themselves. The school is located in the heart of Baltimore, offering many opportunities for travel on the east coast as well as a huge study abroad program. I’ve found that the students here are generally really friendly and it was easy to find who your people are. There are many clubs and student run events and galleries.
MICA had a very relaxed atmosphere and a good group of supportive students. The staff were supportive if you showed a tremendous amount of interest in their courses, but they weren't particularly engaging. The art community around MICA was not very strong at the time of my studies and I did not feel I received a lot of assistance from administration. MICA professors had been there for a long time but at this point a number of new professors have entered the program. I entered the photo program because they had a color-processor and darkroom which they've sadly gotten rid of. the dorms are small and cramped but there was a decent amount of off-campus housing available and it was fairly affordable with a number of roommates.
