<p>In desperate need of advice!</p>
<p>I've narrowed my college choices down to Central Saint Martins (in London) and Pratt MWP (in Utica, NY). But I'm still very confused on which option is best for me.</p>
<p>CSM is a risky choice, as I'm only in for one year and need to re-apply after Foundation year. But I've heard their foundation is legendary and the school reputation is awesome, and I will learn a lot, though stressful, rigorous and competitive. Also, many say that since the class sizes are big, you're left to either sink or swim.</p>
<p>Pratt MWP, on the other hand, is more economically friendly. But the location is very different for me, as I'm a city girl and the schools is in the suburbs. It is the safer option for me, as students from Pratt MWP automatically matriculate to the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn after two years. </p>
<p>However, many say that if I want to do fashion/jewelry in the future, I should choose CSM. But if I want to be in illustration and such, I should choose Pratt. However, I still don't know my general direction yet! So, that doesn't help much :/ It's more of a question of whether I should take the risk, or be safe.</p>
<p>ANY ADVICE will be GREATLY appreciated!! Thanks! :)</p>
