<p>Deciding between Syracuse, USC, Cal Poly SLO, RISD, Pratt, and SCI-Arc. Though several of them are very different, they are all very good nationally ranked programs, and this makes my decision difficult. Also, I never imagined myself at an art school, but when schools with such great programs like risd and pratt are on my list, I might consider giving up the traditional college experience (I know architecture takes up most of the time anyways but still..) to attend one. I would really just appreciate any input you have on the programs or why you may have chosen one over the other. Any information at all is welcome. Thank you!</p>
