Heh heh, I just got my acceptance letter to Otis College of Art and Design this afternoon when I came home from school, and I'm really really happy about it! ^^ I've been stressing over it for MANY weeks, so I'm glad to get that off my chest. ^^U I was surprised to get it so early... I was expecting to get a letter from them in March. xD I think I almost has a heart attack when I got it... @_@

Still not 100% sure that I'll be going there, because of the cost issues and such, but, I'm just glad I was able to get in! ^^;

So, what about anyone else out there who's in high school/college level? This is about the time of year students get letters from Universities and/or other colleges, and start making those oh-so-important decisions about where to go for school...

Congratulations to you! ^_^ Getting into the college you want is so very important. I wasn't able to go to the college of my choice since I couldn't afford it. ^_^; But now maybe it's not so bad since I'm paying off a cheaper student loan. XD

But as a fellow art student, I tell you good luck! It's a very fun degree to work for. ^_^

:D Awesome! Congrats!!

I wanted to be an art student so badly and become a cartoonist... but the animation world is so competitive these days, so I'm getting a BA in Anthropology first. But congrats to you, Linkfreak! Kudos for choosing to follow your dreams. :3 I wish you the best!!

Alright. That's great. Glad to hear about it. I'm sure it'll be hard though but what isn't heh heh.

Congrats. I still haven't decided what I want to major in and therefore which college to pursue. ^_^;;

Congratulations, Link.

As Ryouko said, it's often hard to get into the college of your choice. And it's also hard to get into THE ideal program. But in the end, it's all worth it.

Once again, congratulations and I wish you the very best in your post-secondary education.

Not sure how exactly the American education system works at a tertiary level, but regardless; I can only echo the thoughts of others. But remember, if you find it doesn't turn out what you want don't be afraid to change if you can. There's no point studying something that you do not enjoy. Life and work should ideally be fun as well as tough or busy.

Congrats ^^ Getting admitted to such a school can be pretty tricky.

I was admitted to one art academy, but kicked out after a year because I wasn't good enough (and because I liked manga... XD). And another just didn't admit me at all. But if it really is what you want, I say go for it a 100% ^v^

I am a second year student at University, so I guess High School is way behind me XD

Art is subjective. What some think is art, you can think of lazy BS. This mostly applies to modern art but still.

I'm an art major myself and believe me,it is hard to find a degree that goes with what I'd love to do.

I'd love to make manga comics for you guys to read.However,I'm settling for a Graphic Design major.It's not what I would want,but it should help me get on the path to making the comics.
