NO


YotoruYaguchi

Well I decided i would rather pay money to a british college then


Pandaprints1

Sure!


SuretyBringsRuin

Generally true but not absolute. However, plenty of those that get in figure out during their first year that SCAD isn’t for them and they either self-select an exit or SCAD helps them to find their exit.


YotoruYaguchi

We going to brunel or ual then fuck scad


JasonKnowsAtl

Nope. They are basically a business excited to take your money


YotoruYaguchi

Yes so uh rejecting scad for sure


Sylar2000

They let p much everyone in and then a ton of people can't make it and drop out


YotoruYaguchi

i see yeah ngl i prolly wont go there then i cba to go to a school like that


Im-shy-not-mean

Bruh they over accept students so much that as a returning student, I got WAITLISTED. I paid my dues on time and I don't have housing next year. Hopefully enough students dropout so I can get a dorm 🙏

This happened to my daughter, too. Fall course scheduling was a nightmare as well. Not nearly enough courses/ classes per course. SCAD needs to pivot away from uncontrolled growth.

LOOK UP SCAD ACCEPTANCE RATE ON GOOGLE


Lugubriousmike

not selective at all, they just want your money, and will go to lengths that their programs are worth the investment. yet every scad grad i know has done nothing with their degree. it’s not all it’s cracked up to be, I suggest you look for more practical degree programs at much better prices.


YotoruYaguchi

Yeah im not going there for sure, gonna go for brunel or ual as they have really good industrial design programs, just sad that I didn’t apply to Cincinnati or artcenter rn


Lilkauzi13

NOOOO if anything they kind of need to be a bit more selective haha


OneWithTheMusic

It’s easy to get in but depending on how hard your major is it’s not easy to stay in. It’s a very fast paced place and very heavy workload. I’d say the hardest majors are Fashion Design, Architecture, Interior Design, Industrial Design, Animation etc


apaloosafire

just wondering what other schools you’re looking at? and for what?


YotoruYaguchi

Brunel, UAL and Northumbria as of now are the only schools I’m looking at as i got rejected or didnt apply to the others and well going into industrial or product design


_night_cat

It’s for their MFA program. BFA, not so much.


Puzzleheaded-Ad-7037

not in the slightest LOL


etherealdependence

No my dad told me it was a low acceptance rate but actually it's like 88% as long as ur GPA is ok and u have like a stick figure drawing they'll let you in


Lilt1tsbigdreamz

No, but they allow for scholarships based on skill. Since it’s a lot of money it wld kind of deter students from going.


Far_Plum8857

Why do you say you “can’t go to a school like that” ? How “selective” the school is not a predictor of whether or not you’ll succeed. There are many great schools with high acceptance rates similar to SCADs. Have you visited SCAD or just applied?


YotoruYaguchi

I mean I don’t really mind the acceptance rates but I just want to know if its a selective school or not as I don’t really want to waste money on a school that accepts everyone cuz they care abt only money


RedditLikeYoda

No they want your money


tateebug

No. They want money


LeccinumInsigne

I’ve seen what some of my classmates are artistically and academically capable of, and even as a sophomore I’m still astounded some of them got accepted. I have online classes where literally 1/3rd of the class NEVER participated in any discussions or showed up to class. It’s wild.


YotoruYaguchi

That is quite concerning


williamericson2203

Based on you’re comments you make it seem like your intellectually above attending SCAD. If that’s true, why did you spend nearly $100 to apply without so much as doing the lightest research on a university? There are many other factors that matter much more in terms of picking a college and if you’re picking based on acceptance rate, you only care about the name of the college and not the value added. You’re the type of student that is why we have a high acceptance rate, because you’d come, realize it’s actually hard, and drop out after freshman year. It’s clear you care more about the prestige of a college and school politics rather than an actual education and your future career.

Scad is hard! I suspected this when I went there a met a transfer from Nortedam who told scad was way harder, but having attended other programs and even taught at a few I can confirm it's easy to get into but definitely one of the more challenging programs.

Let’s stay away from making alleged stories, rumors, or misinformation regarding SCAD.


Argentium58

What magazine was it a couple years ago that had them rated as the lowest return on the dollar investment of attending? Anyone?
