Master's Student: My experience, so far, has been exceptional. Like all institutions, the professors come from a wide background—who you click with will be different for everyone. But the real beauty of the school and program come with the classmates. Start to finish, everyone I've meet is down to Earth, hungry, and supportive. They make you want to be a better writer...Read 4 Reviews

  Rating 4.2 out of 5  5 reviews

Graduate Student: MICA is the perfect environment for any emerging artist or creator. The school is a dream, I can't imagine attending anywhere else. However, I do admit I wish the school was located elsewhere. Baltimore raises safety concerns and I find it difficult to emerge myself in the surrounding community. The school more than makes up for its location through its incredible inner community, extensive facilities, and high education...Read 5 Reviews

Graduate Student: CCA has been great- I highly recommend the MFA in Comics program! It's a low residency program where students are on campus in San Francisco for the month of July and can complete their other coursework online throughout the year. We are working on storytelling, drawing and inking skills, digital coloring, and comics history. Additionally, every student has a faculty mentor who works with them on their thesis assignments...Read 3 Reviews

  Rating 4.67 out of 5  6 reviews

Master's Student: What I like best about Goddard College is the on to one access each student has with their professors and resources. A phone call or email will connect each student with the information they are seeking. Goddard provides a rigorous and challenging graduate program to enhance each student's educational and professional work history. I especially like the opportunity to become involved in the on-site publishing facility to learn many aspects of the business with hands-on experience. The current Pandemic has been a challenge that Goddard has embraced with a faculty experienced in distance teaching. They are highly organized and supportive despite the challenges they face...Read 6 Reviews
