WHAT I LIKED

Ringling prepares you for your field a lot and has a lot of resources to help you get a job. They are very thorough and make sure you are up to date on current industry standards.

WHAT I didn’t LIKE

My only caveat is to be aware of the expense and think about if Ringling is right for you. If you're going into animation and have the money, I definitely recommend it, but if you can pursue an equally good program for less money, like film or illustration, I totally would. It's not for everyone and you really have to figure out if it's right for you.
