Astrowheat Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 Hi there, I got accepted by MICA and Cranbrook, both in photography program. But I can't find enough information to determine which one should I choose, such as reputation, tuition or opportunity, etc... Could anyone make some comments on the college or their program. Thanks!
leee Posted May 20, 2012 Posted May 20, 2012 (edited) Congrats both are really good schools with great reputations. Tuition at MICA is about 38,000 a year (tuition only) and Cranbrook is around 30,000 a year. I'm sure you would have great opportunities for growth and networking at both, although I do believe Cranbrook is a little more prestigious, I'm sure you would receive a quality education and experience at both. Baltimore, MD is a bit of a depressed city but with its own character. Bloomfield Hills, MI is pretty close to Detroit I believe, also a depressed city but I believe the area that Cranbrook is located at is top notch, I could be wrong though. Hope some of this info helps, best of luck with your decisions. Oh yeah, not really sure if the US News ranking system does much for you but both schools are ranked #7. Edited May 20, 2012 by leee

losemygrip Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 Go wherever you get the best deal. Calculate total cost, and go wherever is cheaper. The difference in reputation isn't enough to matter here.
