Choosing Your College
Making a decision about which college to attend is pretty much the most stressful aspect of High School.  Informing yourself about the type of schools that make the most sense for your particular personality, and your particular interests is crucial.  If you make decisions about your higher education based upon what you believe others want, you will likely end up feeling a little bit lost.  

Art School is not for everybody.  The courses are rigorous, and the expectations are incredibly high.  Those students who are not good at meeting deadlines, and who are overly sensitive to criticism should avoid it.  For those students who think they have the right work ethic and personality for the challenge of art school should use this list to inform your decision about which one is just right.
