<p>Hi,</p>
<p>My son (finishing 10th grade) wants to study cartooning in college. It looks like his options are MCAD, SVA, & SCAD. </p>
<p>He's a straight A student at a very tough private high school; 211 PSAT; all his teachers love him (he'll have great recommendations); solid extracurriculars. He doesn't yet have a portfolio but is going to start working on it next year. </p>
<p>It would be great to hear from students and parents of students who've looked at or attended these schools (and let me know if I've left any out!). He's not too much interested in student life, but very interested in the strength of the program and career opportunities. </p>
<p>And, as Mom, I'm interested in financial aid - especially merit based aid.</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
