photography? Is it a good idea? In the US so far, I've found the Academy of Art University and Savannah College to have the best all around response vs Art Institute etc. I'm curious if there are any universities elsewhere in the world (ie Australia, UK, mainly bc of language but I speak spanish as well and am up for learning anything else) offering the same type of programs?
I have read a lot of feedback and reviews on online courses not fitting all the hype and I do understand the benefits of brick and mortar. However, I help with the family business which happens to be travel and we are embarking on a trip around the world that consists of a few years. On top of that I'm always flying to visit friends around the world and the states. So, for awhile I've been split on settling somewhere so I can attend school and now that this online stuff has appeared it seems a godsend. However, all the research I try doing online really gets me nowhere and to no one. It took forever to find SCAD and AAU!! They aren't exactly linked very many places which is the main reason I'm curious over other places around the world being hidden.
As for anyone that has taken online courses- better through a school? or through some of those online photog sites?
I've really tried digging around, but haven't found any direct answers. These are some pretty huge decisions for me so I'd like to be as educated as possible on choices.
Thanks a ton for anyone with help! Maybe you know someone enrolled or looking too?
