Savannah College of Art and Design Top Questions

What do you consider the worst thing about Savannah College of Art and Design? Why?

Donald

The worst thing about SCAD may be the mentally of students to stay up late to finish projects and sometimes procrastinate. This is especially deadly at finals or midterms. There is a running joke that people say. It is that SCAD stands for "Sleep Comes After Death". Last year I fell into this trap. However this current year I get much better sleep and produce higher quality work. This is an example that someone doesn't need to stay up till 2am every night to finish a project.

The Savannah College of Art and Design is a fantastic school with a lot of assets and resources. However, the cost of attendance is ridiculous for the average student.

The drug use. Acodring to most people the drug and alcohol use is higher than an average school, because it helps to "create". It doesnt bother that badly but I would like if m roommate(s) didnt come home drunk or high all the time.

The worst thing I consider about my school is the price it cost to attend such a beautiful and magnificent place. With being there for almost one year, I will have to transfer in the fall to attend another school that is affordable.

Raven

The worst things about my school is really the cost. It's incredibly expensive and can really be daunting if you don't have financial aid or enough of it. That's really it. Just the cost alone.

Amanda

Tuition rates are unbelievable!

Emily

The amount of money I have to pay to attend this school is extremely high I've worked the same job every break I get from school for the past two years and will have to use all of the money I've made to pay for one term. The school has also decided to recently raise tutition. My parents are on their hands and knees trying to help me get through school without going into debt.

The organization of the bus schedules on certain days, they plan school days and invite potential students and theif families on midterm and finals weeks, and shut down the whole bus system just for the use of the visitors. I also don't like the segregation of the Savannah campus. Because every department is at a different building, there's little to no interaction between all the different majors. It's elitist and infuriating.

Matthew

While the campus is a beautiful place that is rich in history, charm, and indictative of the artistic environment it was created for, it is not a campus. The buildings and dorms are spread out through the downtown area in Savannah. There is great transportation and ease of getting around; however, a enclosed campus would foster a more cohesive environment and a clearer view of all that is truly available.

After awhile, the town of Savannah becomes quite small....

Heather

I belive that the worst thing about the Savannah College of Art and Design is the school bookstore hours. There are some days when one realizes that they need to get some art supplies, but the bookstore is closed as early as 4:30 p.m. Thus, one has to either borrow supplies or go to a store that is not as convenient to get to.

Nothing, my school is great and active, keeps you busy and motivated!

Stephanie

The worst thing about my school is that the bus system takes some getting used to. The busses are usually on time but occationally traffic or another force prevents them from picking up students on time.

Deborah

The worst thing about Ferris State University is the remoteness of the campus. Big Rapids is a very small town and if you are used to a larger city atmosphere, FSU would not be a preferred campus setting for you. This may not be the worst thing for all students, but could be the worst for students from a community with great diversity and multiple events to chose for entertainment.

Brittany

The bus system isn't very reliable. Most of the time, the buses are late/early to stops, aren't in service, or just don't stop at your stop. Sometimes the buses are on time, but this doesn't happen very often.

Audrey

The worst thing about my school would have to be the lack of curriculum for some areas of study. For instance, we have a Fine arts program yet we lack curriculum in the Theater and Drama programs by having only 2 or 3 classes for those areas of study.

Sarah

I would have to say that the worst thing was the run around that the school administation forces you to go though if you have any problems. For example, when there was a problem with one of my grades it took me nearly month to correct it. In the end I had act as a go-between so that the administrator and the professor could correct the problem.

Allison

The workload at SCAD is tough but well worth the award if you are willing to try your hardest to suceed. That is especially true for incoming students who aren't prepared to take all the work SCAD requires and just think they are in for an easy ride because they are attending an art school. SCAD has a tough workload and they expect you to be the best you can be.

Jade

I really can not think of anything bad to say about the school. Yes the school is expensive but I understand thats only because the level of education that the students are getting. I love the school and everything the school stands for.
