<p>Which college has the best program for art?</p>
<p>I hear Syracuse, RIT and Carnegie Melon have excellent programs. But since my son doesn’t want to go too far from home, we’re looking at Temple University’s Tyler School of Art, which is ranked very high in the nation.</p>
<p>Are you looking for an art school, per se, or a “full service” liberal arts university or college with a strong studio art department? If the latter I would recommend: </p>
<p>Small liberal arts colleges: Williams, Wesleyan, Hamilton, Kenyon, Conn College, Oberlin, Skidmore, Vassar, Haverford. Smith if you are female. </p>
<p>Medium sized privates: Brown, Yale, CMU, JHU</p>
<p>Large publics: not my area of expertise</p>
