<p>Is Pratt a good choice. My friend plans to go there and then transfer out because of the foundation year. Anyone have a description of Pratt?(ie: students, courses), any info would be appreciated.</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>You mean they’re going to Pratt so they can experience Pratt’s foundation year? Or so they can skip another school’s foundation?
I thought Pratt didn’t have a foundation year, but either way, I think that’s kind of dumb of your friend. Especially if they’re doing it to get out of a hard first year.</p>
<p>Pratt does have a foundation year, although I think it depends on your major? Someone correct me if I’m wrong. I applied for fine arts and there is definitely a foundation year for that. I have two friends majoring in photo/film and they have the foundation year as well, except their electives are geared towards their major.</p>
<p>He is going to attend Pratt for their foundation program in graphic design, he really likes it, and also plans to take a few other art courses available because Pratt’s curriculum is a bit flexible but he intends to then transfer to a different art school (ie: parsons or sva) after foundation year and continue his graphic design major at either of those schools. He wants to experience Pratt’s foundation, yes. then he will transfer.</p>
