Don’t get me wrong, this school is in need of some improvement… The admissions people are WAY to pushy and don’t come off friendly as they should. They need to STOP hiring new admissions people and start focusing on better instructors and better equipment for the programs then people actually might stop tearing this place down so much. \r
However, on a lighter note, I’ve been attending this school sense 2009 and have had my fair share of irritations and complicates… as anyone would at any school. But I have enjoyed myself, I have learned things that I would have never learned on my own. I enjoy almost every professor that I have ever had… they are knowledgeable and willing to listen and help you understand what you don’t. The networking is good, I had accumulated many freelance opportunities because of fellow students I’ve meant and the Career Services Department. \r
Now when it comes to Financial Aide and Career Services I personally think that they do a wonderful job. They have always been more than willing to help myself, and my fellow classmates out when they have a question or are in need or assistance. \r
This place is not as bad as everyone makes it sound. They do need to work on how to better approach students and how to benefit them in the long run. I do however believe that the biggest concern I have with this school is the amount of money it costs and the director of Video Production. He is not suit to teach or run a Video Department what so ever. He is all about his own opinion and less about preparing students for the real world of filmmaking. All I have to say is that the Video Department is VERY lucky to have the instructors that they do otherwise it would suck terribly. \r
I strongly believe that people who are so disgruntled with this school is because; 1) they either refuse to move after graduation to a state that would supply them with better career opportunities so they get mad at the school for the lack of help (YOU CAN’T BE IN A CREATIVE CAREER AND EXPECT TO MAKE ANY MONEY IN OHIO – DUH!) 2) they’re upset with the loans they have to take out and pay for (APPLY FOR SCHOLORSHIPS, THEY’RE OUT THERE – I KNOW) and 3) They have not applied themselves in school or out of school so they are pissed that they are failing (YOU HAVE TO TRY HARDER THAN THE CLASS ROOM – NOTHING WILL BE HANDED TO YOU IN LIFE) \r
Over all, this place has it’s flaws but I strongly believe that the staff is FINALLY starting to listen to the student body. You will not succeed as a school if you don’t listen to what the students have to say… I hope they keep that in mind for the future. \r
