<p>Firstly, I'm going to be a senior and I'm screwed. Well, more like I think I'm behind in the whole process.</p>
<p>I want to go into art/design but preferably at a generic college, though I am open to art and design schools as well. Problem is: don't know where to start. </p>
<p>I prefer colleges with diversity. I don't mind about size really, but it'd be nice if it was somewhere that has friendly, intellectual people. I'm not into hardcore partying, though I don't mind if some exists. Preferably a college with a relatively nice campus, where the weather isn't too cold, and has a free environment. And of course, it must have a strong art/design department. </p>

Not so much of volunteer but I'm gonna get as much as I can in. </p>
<p>As for awards, I've won quite a few, but they're usually just district level stuff. These are some of the bigger ones though.
Texas State VASE Art Competition - Gold Medalist two consecutive years (will enter next year too)
2nd Place Sam Johnson Congressional Art Contest
Placed at German state competition in multiple categories (two consecutive years)</p>
<p>I'm automatically admitted into UT Austin since I'm in the top 10% of my class, but are there any other reach, safety, and match schools? </p>
<p>Thank you guys!</p>
