I've dealt with the Art Institute of Chicago and the one in Ft. Lauderdale.
It was years ago I went to the Art Institute of Chicago, and really couldn't
tell you about it now. Back in the 60's it didn't deal with the techno world
and was more concept oriented.
However, I have dealt with and toured the Art Institute if Ft. Lauderdale and
they guarantee
connection and job placement for all their grads. I found them very
personable and caring for the groups I've brought for tours.They offered financial
assistence for their students too.
Your right in saying it's wise to check each place out for yourself, but you
also need to ask the right questions.
