Academy of art. Is it or is it not a good school? Will I get a good job?

[Number Three]

Everything I've heard about it seems kind of "advertisy" as apposed to other schools that seem kinda straightforward no nonsense.

Also why does it have athletics? I've never heard of an art school with athletics, this boggles the mind lol

Finally, if I DO go and finish a degree will a degree from that school be even looked at as valid? I mean, I know it's all about the portfolio (or in my case demo real) but can I trust that I'll get a good enough education to get a job?

I'd like to call them, but I'm A.) worried that they'll keep sending me things if I do. B.) wondering if they're anything like fullsail and slightly unreachable. and C.) kinda want to get an outsiders opinion first before I even look into the college.

what do you guys think?

I'm quite certain they are for-profit, unaccredited "colleges". According to a lot of artist friends of mine, the degrees they give are practically worthless.

Instead I am attending a traditional 4-year uni with a solid Fine Arts program and getting the degree there. I suggest you do the same.
