<p>DigiPen University offers a B.S in Game Design, it is the career I went to put forth to. Very affordable only $15,000 "$20,000 my guidance counselor says when I go to college".</p>
<p>Here are the courses: <a href="https://www.digipen.edu/academics/degree-programs/bs-game-design/course-sequence/%5B/url%5D">https://www.digipen.edu/academics/degree-programs/bs-game-design/course-sequence/</a></p>
<p>It is everything I wanted!</p>
<p>However, they do not offer computer science degrees at a B.S level, only at a M.S level. If I am correct, undergrads cannot get M.S. Allot of game programmer jobs require a B.S in CS. Will they accept a B.S in Game Design "now looking at this, this may sound like a dumb question...." </p>
<p>Sometimes they B.S in CS or Engineering. </p>

<p>Also your thoughts on the school in general.</p>
<p>I don’t know how DigiPen is received by businesses.</p>
<p>I am familiar with their excellent workshops for high school students. The school has been around for maybe 15 years and grows every year in the number and types of degrees they grant. DigiPen just moved to a brand-new facility this month. Very nice.</p>
<p>Realize that DigiPen is not a traditional college. There are no dormitories, no campus life, no real “student vibe,” no drama majors or extracurricular activities. It is located in an office park. It is not the place to choose if you want to attend football games, take piano lessons or English classes, or hang out in the quad. You should be really, really, 100% positive that video game programming is your future.</p>
<p>If you were my son, I would strongly recommend that you look at a computer science B.S. at a traditional college, perhaps a state school, and supplement your coursework with digital media as well as more traditional arts and literature courses for a well-rounded background.</p>
