CSU colleges for BFA Illustration?

Hi all - We’re just starting to research CSU campuses for a BFA Illustration with our h.s. junior - Fullerton, Long Beach, Northridge seem to be the top three. (Yes, we’d love to look into private, but holy moly, those tuitions EVEN with scholarships etc. have us scared off). Can you help in terms of ranking the programs? Our kid would be moving onto campus from Northern California (Concord), so housing, college “feel” helpful as well. Finally - LGBT friendly? Thanks in advance!!!

Hey! San Jose State is the best CSU for illustration from what I’ve heard. Their illustration program has been around the longest. Small program (~400 students) and very LGBT friendly. I suggest scheduling a visit to their art department :slight_smile:
