#1 Best Colleges for Film and Photography in America
Junior: Being a student at the University of Southern California is like no other. The campus is beautiful and the academics are stellar. The whole school feels like one big family. The athletic programs are top notch and really bring all the students together. I love being able to attend countless games while seeing cheering fans who truly love where they go to school. The best part about the University of Southern California is the Trojan alumni. With over 425,000 Trojan alumni in the world, you are always connected to a Trojan. The wonderful Trojan alumni are there for you beyond your four years. They give opportunities to advance in your desired career field, as well as be there in a new environment. No other university is this connected between current students and alumni. I am proud to attend USC, where academics, athletics and alumni blend together making the ultimate college experience!

#2 Best Colleges for Film and Photography in America
Sophomore: I absolutely love NYU. I study at the College of Arts and Sciences as a student on track for pre-med and I absolutely love the diversity and resources available to me. Everything about the campus is perfect. I wasn't one to really care about having the "traditional college experience" from sports, to having an actual solidified area for the campus, so NYU was absolutely perfect for me. I feel as if I am just living in the city and taking classes, and everyone here is so friendly and motivating. This is an amazing environment if you want to work hard and succeed academically and career-wise, and occasionally indulge in a little bit of fun in the social scene. The dorms are so great, I was in Lipton Hall my first year and it is honestly so nice, bright, cozy, and clean. There is a food hall as a part of my dorm that offers so many different selections (and also caters to your dietary needs like vegan food). I love NYU so much and you should definitely apply here!

Freshman: Yale is an amazing school! The professors and students are all encouraging and friendly. Everyone there deserves to be there, which makes the learning environment extremely rewarding and stimulating. There are so many resources to help you navigate your time at Yale, especially during your first-year. You immediately build a community within your residential college, and can find a group instantly through classes or extracurriculars. The campus is beautiful, intertwined with the city. The courtyards of the residential colleges and the buildings on campus are unmatched by any other university in the country. Everyone is extremely friendly, all while you are earning a world-class education and building connections that will last for years to come.

Graduate Student: There is no other university like it on the planet. The undergrad experience is fantastic--Stanford really makes sure to integrate first year students into campus life.

Stanford does everything well: academics, extracurriculars, social scene, sports, food, the arts, improv comedy(!), etc. You name it, Stanford does it and does it brilliantly. It even has the best weather!

And don't forget about the grad programs. They are outstanding across the board.

#5 Best Colleges for Film and Photography in America
Alum: My experiences with the University of Pennsylvania were overall positive. The breadth of academic choices available was incredible. I explored a variety of subjects and transferred internally mid-way through my undergraduate career to focus on a business degree at Wharton, with a computer science minor. The school emphasizes pre-professionalism, providing many resources for corporate career development but also placing a lot of pressure on the student body. The student climate was compettiive, and students often spent most of their time with their extracurricular groups. The older dorms (I did not live in any of the newer developments) needed to renovations, and were unhygenic and cramped.

Dartmouth College
4 Year
Hanover, NH
Rating 3.84 out of 5 702 reviews
#6 Best Colleges for Film and Photography in America
Junior: It is hard to imagine a better college than Dartmouth. The mix of academics, clubs and outdoor activities, and social scene is (in my opinion) unparalleled. Everyone is academically driven, and I feel like I can have an intellectual conversation with anyone on campus. There is a sport, club, or outdoor activity for everyone at the college, as most people I know are heavily involved in at least 2 extracurricular clubs. Lastly, the social scene is fun and inclusive. There are different frats and sororities for different all types of preferences, and every house has an "open door" policy. There is little to no social hierarchy that I've noticed (Football players aren't treated differently from comp sci geeks), making it so that anyone can be friends with anyone.

One additional note: sophomore summer is the best term of all time! Look it up.

#8 Best Colleges for Film and Photography in America
Freshman: My favorite part of UChicago is definitely its academics -- students are constantly encouraged to debate, rethink, and most importantly, listen. I was able to take a graduate student course as a first-year, and was amazed by the level of respectful and intellectual discussion that was possible! Students and professors alike are motivated, caring, and inclusive, and there's a strong sense of community everywhere you go, from the UCPD officer on the street corner to the dining hall staff. There's truly something for everyone, from Student Action to University Theater to Circus Club to Greek life. Regardless of extracurricular interests, however, there's an undeniable bond in the love of learning and open-mindedness that ties everyone in UChicago together.

#9 Best Colleges for Film and Photography in America
Sophomore: The school is excellent! My major is involved in the Herb Albert School of Music which in itself is very open to any style of music, has several performance opportunities, and teaches valuable information that the modern-day musician needs to be able to take on a number of careers and music degree can give. The school as a whole has an incredible, stress- free environment that is constantly inspiring students to step outside of the box and be as creative as possible. The school even has it's own cute coffee shop and a huge cafeteria full of gourmet food and options for every kind of diet. The dorms are on campus making it super easy to get to class and it also has it's own little cafe/game room, spacious rooms, a pool, a gym, and even a sauna. The only issue with the school is the handicap accessibility and the tuition in which there is funding help from the school, but no full ride options.

#11 Best Colleges for Film and Photography in America
Sophomore: As a parent of a sophmore in Visual Arts and Writing programs, I feel so grateful she got in. First of all she got a full ride, they removed a massive strain off of our family and did it completely and thoroughly. She had met and spoken with several faculty members before applying (Early Decision) and visited the campus, and they were so helpful and supportive it really allowed us to make a confident Early Decision. My daughter is gifted, but shy shy shy, and her mother is Brazilian, so VERY attached and we worried about sending her away. It was tough, but the support of programs like Deneb Stars and the many other programs (including late night escorts for safety) allowed her to make the leap and find her feet. Once the pandemic hit, WashU was amongst the first half dozen schools to move online (they are now hybrid, my daughter is working from home). The faculty and admin prioritized their health first, while the coursework has remained rigorous. She is thriving. A+ response Washu!

You never feel alone here, and you'll find professors and friends who will support you through thick and thin. The liberal arts education is amazing because I've been exposed to so many new topics that I would've never studied otherwise. Although I'm here to get into medicine, I've developed a love for studying French, and this school has helped me pursue my passions in both fields.

#17 Best Colleges for Film and Photography in America
Freshman: My first quarter at UCLA was not what I had dreamed it would be. However, the school is making the most of it! Traditional events are still held online to the best of their ability, and they offer many opportunities to socialize with others. There are many student organizations to join with interests in nearly everything. I was never drawn to Greek Life, but at UCLA, the sororities were very welcoming, and joining was the best decision I made this quarter. It was a gateway to meeting new people and making friends. In terms of academics, my professors were flexible with our schedules and empathized with us during this pandemic. The one thing that I would change, though, would be the tuition and fees. The payments are quite expensive for being online and not being able to use any of those resources in person. Overall, I do not regret my decision of attending UCLA and considering the circumstances, I enjoyed my first quarter!

Vassar College

Rating 3.73 out of 5 634 reviews
#19 Best Colleges for Film and Photography in America
Freshman: Vassar College has an abundance of amazing partner programs for students coming to build up their careers in their specific fields of study. Some range from STEM-related studies while also focusing on international studies and Education. The courses are extremely challenging but there is so much support outside of class to help students with their assignments. A majority of the professors are very understanding of students situation and there is on-campus financial support for first-generation students. While Vassar is good for their partnerships programs and school- work tutoring and support, it seems that support for other necessities is lacking. It is extremely difficult to transfer credits over to Vassar and there is almost no help in the process. The system for registering for courses also needs improvement as it puts a majority of upperclassmen at a disadvantage and finally, there is a lack of social programs for students interested in STEM fields.

Freshman: I'm finishing up my first year at Oxford College of Emory University, and I've loved it! There's a strong sense of community that I've never felt anywhere else, and all the people are really nice. The student body is incredibly smart, while also being down-to-earth, laidback, and cooperative rather than competitive. The education I receive is second to none, and my professors have been extremely insightful, personable, and accommodating. The campus itself is beautiful, with the tree-filled quad, the nature trail, and the new student center. The main drawback is the food, as, even though the quality is great, there are only really 2 food options on campus and they get repetitive fast. UberEats and DoorDash are lifesavers. Oxford College of Emory University has become my new home, and I can't wait to go back next year.

I have learned valuable knowledge about who I am as a both a person and a student. I come from New York City, so moving to move Vermont has been a huge culture shock but Middlebury’s community has made it bearable. Middlebury is a place that makes you self-aware and pushes you out of your comfort zone! I’m excited to see where my future will go from here!

Sophomore: Carleton has wonderful faculty and their selling point would definitely be the academics. Carleton is also very generous with giving financial aid to students, which has helped me tremendously. Although it is secluded in a small town, I find this to be very good for my safety (honestly, you'll probably be too busy being on campus to even want to go to the cities). I think the dorms are above average for a lot of colleges in America. I've visited many, and Carleton's "worst dorm" (which I lived in) was very nice. Overall, great school! Can't wait to finish my degree.

Niche User: Our tour guide was well trained. He waited for someone to leave the dorms to have them tell the group what the best thing was about Amherst. The Dean was very intelligent and knowledgeable and gave a great information session presentation to the group. It is a small liberal arts college which is academically based and hard to get into. A mini Harvard that was scaled down. A shuttle transports you to the other 5 colleges connected with Amherst (University of Massachusetts-Amherst, Smith College, Mount-Holyoke College and Hampshire College). If accepted into any one of these colleges, you can attend classes, sports, activities at any of these colleges if they offer something that you are interested in. A nice feature to have offered because all of a sudden there is a larger area of interest, sports and activities to choose from. Making it almost impossible not to have something that you are looking for or interested in which can happen at small schools with limited choices.

Though I do not give it 5 stars because they do lack diversity and they really market themselves as a small school so you'll be able to get into all your classes which definitely is not the case. There are so many different opportunities Chapman gives you from the variety of majors and minors to the connections you will make, Chapman is the place to go if you want an amazing career in the future. The professors push and challenge you while also making learning fun. And how can you beat living 20 mins from the beach!

Its location gives great opportunity to access many main attractions of the city. Once you step on campus the environment is very welcoming with such friendly staff and faculty. The professors always seem passionate about the classes they're teaching and they are also more than willing to aid you and make themselves available for you. There is always a variety of events happening on campus, even for commuters which engages them to really feel like they belong as a student. There is always great spots like the quad to hang out with friends, and class sizes are relatively small for college classes allowing you to meet great friends and allowing the professors to really get to know their students and personalize their teaching. Overall, a great school!

Alum: I loved attending the University of Pittsburgh for my undergraduate education. I was involved in a very difficult and demanding nursing curriculum but the education was great and prepared me very well for the profession. Even with a difficult major the sense of community at Pitt was always positive and with plenty of activities to choose from and on top of that, the school is located to the city of Pittsburgh! The school gives you a Pitt ID that gives you free access to the bus system which really encourages students to explore the city and opportunity to explore neighborhoods, restaurants, museums (also free with ID). Overall my professors were phenomenal and passionate about teaching us students. Choosing Pitt for college was one of the best decisions I ever made!
