<p>My daughter would like to apply to only art schools. </p>
<p>If she were to change her mind after the first year and decide a liberal arts college would be better, would she be able to transfer those credits? Are there some art schools to stay away from for this reason?</p>
<p>Thank you!</p>
<p>far as I know that is why you shouldn’t go to art school if you aren’t sure.
But more of the issue for which LAC to transfer to.
some of them would make you do from scratch academic wise no matter what.
some of them take some art credits as advanced status, like passing HS AP art.
Check both schools (from and to) and ask questions to
students
academics faculty
art faculty
scheduling folks (adviser? what’yama call it?)
admission people
big shot dean of something important, admission? student life? academic resources?
you’d gag how they don’t know what they are talking about.
Then you can name the name and say " well so and so in whichever dept. told me this and that but you are saying that and this is not this and that?" to get to the bottom of it, hopefully leaving proof paper trail.</p>
<p>She does plan on a pre-college program this summer to be more sure. I really hope that gives her more of a clear cut idea. But I am also wondering if getting your bachelor’s at an art school limit any grad school choices? Like you said, I guess these are questions for individual schools. </p>
<p>Does anyone know the names of the accreditation bodies/programs/gods??</p>
<p>You might start with NASAD (National Association of Schools of Art and Design):</p>
<p>[NASAD</a> Home](<a href=“http://nasad.arts-accredit.org/index.jsp?page=index]NASAD”>http://nasad.arts-accredit.org/index.jsp?page=index)</p>
<p>in backward, might limit going to high mighty MFA if you got only BA or BS
gods?

<p>hey worried_
wow you beat me, I was gonna name you as the goddess but I thought you’ve retired from this turf.</p>
<p>I would imagine, since I don’t know for sure, that it would be more difficult to get credits accepted by transferring to a LAC from a stand-alone art school than going the other way.</p>
<p>Honestly, I wouldn’t recommend a stand-alone art school unless your child REALLY is committed to art. Moreover, there are a number of LACS that have decent art programs such as Skidmore, Alfred University etc. Moreover, many universities have strong art programs such as Temple, Wash U, Cincinnati, CMU etc.</p>
<p>Frankly, if you are unsure, go to a LAC or a university.</p>
<p>thank you for the edit, p3t.
I will wash my mouth with a soap, mommy!!
How about
It helps if you’d appear intellectually challenged, then college personnel will show their true colors and not sugar coat anything because they’d assume
