If you are an interior design student.BrightInterior Design
If you are an interior design student.... It would be helpful to have taken a basic drawing course that includes the fundamental basics of sketch, perspective drawing, adding value/shading, basic figures, and drawing interior/exterior environments. These principles will be used repeatedly throughout every class in the architecture and interior design course. Without this basic knowledge, you will be struggling to complete the assignments within a reasonable amount of time. This is a very expensive college at $2,200 per class. I just don't feel this is a correct match for my creative goals. I cannot reiterate enough that basic drawing and basic skills in photoshop will be beneficial to anyone enrolling in the AID program

You have the feelingBrightIndustrial Design
You have the feeling there are things that clearly could be improved in the school as well as the program but the people in charge avoid taking responsibility or don't care about it.
