<p>Hi, I'm really new to these forums and wanted some opinions on a major. I am currently an undergrad student at Georgia Southern University. I have a passion for film and want to pursue this as a career. GSU has a multimedia comm. major with a digital filmmaking track, but I wonder if I should consider transferring to another more reputable program. thanks for the advice.</p>
<p>I’m familiar with GSU and taught there briefly in the Art Department, but I only had one student in your program. You’re just up the road from SCAD. Pay them a visit and get some information about their program. You can compare the two and get a feel for how their program differs from yours. Then compare their program and yours to other schools. I believe SCAD will accept the GA HOPE Scholarship. That’s to your advantage.</p>
<p>did your student like the program? i have considered scad but it is very expensive even with hope.</p>
<p>I don’t recall specific conversations, but he did not seem dissatisfied. </p>
<p>I know SCAD is expensive, but take the free tour, and read through the catalog of courses (even online) to see how a comprehensive program is structured. Then, compare other programs to it. The one at GSU might stand up, at least in structure - not facilities of course.</p>
<p>Online Course Catalog: [SCAD</a> > Programs > Film and Television > Courses](<a href=“http://www.scad.edu/film-and-television/courses.cfm#programButtons]SCAD”>Film & Television Degrees | Film & TV Degree Programs | SCAD.edu)</p>
<p>RainingAgain is a shill for SCAD.</p>
<p>If you won’t respond to my PM, whatever. I was courteous enough to identify myself in real life, you have not extended the same courtesy in return.</p>
<p>People can read my comments, and they can read yours. I’m sure they can decide for themselves which of us is credible.</p>
