College Search & Selection

<p>Hi, </p>

<p>Which schools are considered the best for photography in the Metro DC area (DC, VA, MD)? Google search seems to bring up more schools advertising themselves instead of reviews.</p>

<p>Thanks in advance!</p>

<p>How about MICA?</p>

<p>Darn Taxguy, you stole the words right out of my mouth. :)</p>

<p>HI Carolyn :)</p>

<p>Also, consider the Corcoran College of Art and Design whose web site url is:
<a href="http://www.corcoran.edu/prospective/degrees_undergraduate.asp%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.corcoran.edu/prospective/degrees_undergraduate.asp&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Both MICA and Corcoran are NASAD accredited. </p>

<p>However, if you are seriously considering photography, I would be remiss if I didn't mention who the top ranking photography schools were ( regardless of location):</p>

<ol>
<li>School of Art Institute in Chicago ( SAIC)</li>
<li>RISD</li>
<li>Rochester Institute of Technology.</li>
<li>University of New Mexico</li>
</ol>

<p>I should also mention Syracuse University photojournalism major, which is considered top notch. Syracuse also has a photography program in their art school that is well ranked.</p>

<p>I have personally seen RIT's photography department, and it is amazing.</p>
