<p>There is a two year college in Chicago that focuses almost soley on teaching you how to create/design/code videogames. I don’t know any more about it (i.e. stats to get it, job prospects after graduation, etc.), but maybe you could find more about it using the googles.</p>

<p>How much experience do you have with programming and visual design?</p>

<p>UC Santa Cruz has a game design major. With the proximity…30 or so minutes…from the Silicon Valley it’s a great choice for someone interested in game design. If you are out of state make sure you consult the University of California home page:<br>
