art school decision - help!

Hi so I am going into my senior year of highschool and I really want to go to art school. I want to do illustration or maybe animation. I would love to work at Pixar. I have good grades and my art teachers are always telling me I should go to art school and that I can get in. My list rite now is: SVA, CCA, ArtCenter, Parsons, Pratt, RISD, CalArts.

i am wondering the reputation of these colleges and Which one is best? Whichis worst? how do i decide which to apply 2? Should I definitely try for one of the NY schools? My friend keeps pushing SVA.

RISD

Are you a parent or a student?

Yes - in one forum here, you post that you’re the student. Elsewhere, you say that you’re the parent. Which are you?
