I also "Hoped" the reviews didn't match the realization of this school. Wow was I disappointed. It is over priced. The classes are not good. TRANSFER? most likely won't get those credits back. The only thing nice is the actual building looks nice.

I had a great first two years or so (2012-2014) when the school was doing great and had professors who cared. The last two years (2014-2016) we're an absolute joke. Subpar professors, issues with the school being sued by the government, students who we're admitted without any design experience or will to learn.
During the last two years, I have several emails sent to the Dean, my academic advisor, etc. that don't get a response. I understand times can get busy, but to ignore an email entirely until I either call repeatedly or physically drive to the location is not acceptable.
They have also been running into issues finding professors and students, so my graduation date was pushed back nearly a YEAR, forcing me to decline full-time positions.
To top it off, I was called recently by the Art Institute to pay a final bill of around $1,250 for my last classes. I am Veteran and my classes are paid for by the VA. I told the woman on the phone this and she said she understood and would be taking care of the matter with the VA. Instead, they sent my bill to a collection agency which has now been ringing me and effected my credit in the middle of securing a mortgage.
I had a fantastic experience for the first two years and thank the staff and professors for that, but the remaining tenure has been a nightmare of unorganized staff and professors who check a box to secure accreditation. I would not recommend this school in its current status to anyone serious about design.response / report this review -

I did not learn much when I attended this school. Like everyone else has said, it is truly a waste of money. I left there almost 3 years ago and tried to transfer to another school, an actual university and The Art Institute would and STILL will not give me my transcripts until I pay off a 9 thousand dollar loan. This is stopping me from getting my education. I was suppose to graduate college next year 2017. But I will not worry, for God has it all under control. Philippians 4:6-7 says:
6: Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
7: And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
Which means to NEVER worry how a situation is going to work out. Have faith in God and believe that he will work it out. Worry about NOTHING but PRAY about EVERYTHING. God is the ruler and he has the final say!response / report this review -

Don't get me wrong the schools Environment and curriculum , Grade A, but they're receiving a bunch of lawsuits for a reason. I should know, I was a Film major. I just wanna know what do ya'll do with all these alleged loans and grants that I've never seen, and if they're supposed to go directly to the school, how come I was forced to leave due to missed payments and insufficient funds ??

I enrolled and was accepted almost immediately. Took a semester of online courses without issue. When I went to enter the school on campus and move into housing, they did not have a room available that they guaranteed me. They ended up putting me in an off campus apartment complex in a room with holes in the walls, stains all over the floor and a criminal court receipt stuck to the wall in the (filthy) bedroom. I immediately withdrew from the school. Now that it's over, they have stuck student loans to me that I was never made aware of. I've settled and paid off one, except that they reported to the credit union that I didn't pay the full amount. That will hang over me for 10-12 years, which means my credit is so poor I won't be able to get a loan approved for anything I want within the near future (I was, again, never made aware of this). I can only hope my car lasts that long. They have ruined me financially. I sincerely wish nothing but the WORST for these people. The Art Institute is one that should be burned to the ground and closed for good.
