which is better for computer game design, RIT or Drexel?

Hello,

Few week ago I got offers for CS undergraduate degree from both Drexel and RIT. My intention is to study video game design.

Though Drexel fees are higher than RIT, both have offered scholarships but the final amount I have to pay in both cases are almost same. It would have to be quite an effort for me to pay these amounts even after the scholarship.

Can you suggest a best option for me to select (RIT or Drexel)? What are the possibilities of getting further aid in support of my study?

Help would be welcome

Are you able to visit either (if you haven’t already done so)?

“It would have to be quite an effort for me to pay these amounts even after the scholarship.” are either of these really affordable to begin with? Do you have other options, like doing a community college for two years then transfer in?

If you really had to choose, probably RIT. They have a robust environment for this kind of thing.

But if both are a stretch for you it may be a good idea to attend neither, and go somewhere else first.

What did you decide and why?

Look at Champlain College in Vermont. They have a department that specializes in game design.
