My experience at this school has been awesome so far. I have learned so much in my first year alone. I enjoy my classes and my professors are great! The dorms are comfortable, quiet, and safe. The surrounding area has a lot to offer. There are many restaurants to choose from. There are always fun school events happening on campus. I only wish that there were more diversity among my peers.
Minneapolis College of Art and Design was a decent school. Academics are solid, and the professors were able to help me grow as an artist. Most professors wanted to see you succeed. The two major problems I had were the lack of social life and lack of things to do on/off campus. The nearest grocery store was a bus ride away. Most students had to wait for a spot on the bus... wasn't an enjoyable experience. The neighborhood wasn't the safest place to be at night, and certainly isn't now. Dorms weren't actually dorms... It was apartment style living. There isn't a food plan on campus, because they don't have a real cafeteria. (Hence why you needed to go grocery shopping to cook in your apartment.)
I'm a current student. It's a pretty nice school overall, the teachers are amazing and the students are friendly. But the school is so expensive, especially where it doesn't need to be. The school has a history of not listening to it's students. If you can afford it, it's a really nice place.
