MICA is somewhat of a joke. The amount of pressure put on you to be unique & successful can be overwhelming. This demand isn't followed through with from the education. There is often a lot of miscommunication. The acamdemic classes are normally very general and simple. The studio courses in the fine art departments are so-so. Some are good, some are horrible…There are not enough faculty to teach. Every semester there are more and more problems with classes because you never can get the classes you want because there aren't enough classes to choose from. If you are an upperclassmen forget it. Every year MICA acepts more and more freshman who fill up the classes. No faculty, not many options for classes. The only thing you can hope for when you get out of here is having a prestigeous degree. Othere than that there isn't much help with planning on finding a job.
