<p>D just returned from pre-college summer photo program at sva. She really loved it. Last year she did summer pre-college photo at NYU-loved that too. She 100% believes NYC is the place for her to be at college on a photo program.</p>
<p>She is about to start her senior year and because we are in a rural area on NC, we don't have a lot of resources to help us with college selection so we are havng to do it all ourselves. We would appreciate any help or sugestions you can give.</p>
<p>Her grades are more the SVA criteria rather than NYU. However, they know her in the Tisch photo dept ay NYU anad have encouraged her to apply early decision. We realize NYU reputation is like none other but she may be more inclined to go to an art school - and there is no guarantee that she would be accepted at Tisch. Does SVA have a good reputation? To add to the mix, she has heard good stuff about photo at FIT - but we know next to nothing about that. Is FIT-NYC accredited? HELP!!</p>
<p>I have been reading this message board for months but she is just beginning. Can you please give her food for thought - she has so many decisions to make!</p>
