This school is superb!Business - Management and Administration
This school is superb! Everything you need, food, bathrooms, classrooms the whole nine yards. Anyone with a bad word about this school should take it up with me! I'm a millionaire out of college doing WHAT I WANT because five towns got me there. I own several companies.

Question
Simple advice.Quite BrightMusic - Composition/Theory
Simple advice..find a better school. It took me a year to realize how much this place doesn't prepare you for the real world. Therefore I transferred and I'm hoping you decide to look somewhere else. The school is essentially one small hallway. Including mediocre recording studios, a keyboard lab from the '70s, and classrooms with desks from the '60s. The place is a for profit school..and when I say that I mean the school sees hardly any of that money. The president and his lawyers get most of it (for his extensive lawsuits he has going on with family and the town). If you have the unfortunate luck of having to live on campus then be warned. The food might take a couple years off your life and there are little to no activities. The music staff are quite friendly. I did enjoy my classes..mainly cuz you can pretty much sleep through all of them and still make the dean's list. If you're looking for a challenging school that will prepare you for the music world..this isnt really the place. If you're looking for a day care then this is the place to be. But college is what you make of it really. I had some fun times and some annoying times at FTC (mostly disappointing). This just wasnt the place I thought it was advertised to be.

Question
Ok I'm not going to say I totallyBrightMusic - Performance
Ok I'm not going to say I totally hate it, but it wasn't a good experience I was a theater arts major . I really feel I some things from the faculty but like some of the classes that i had to take for example play production Was the most pointless class ever basically u sit in the class 4 45 to 1 hr doin nothin but listen to the professor ramble on about nothing. They grade u off of crew hours by lifting heavy stuff painting up stuff doing freaking Manual labor. which I think is just bs becuz u paying alot of money for this college and u have to stay after 430 to help wit theater department . Another thing this college doesn't even have a nurses office, obviously this college could care less about ur health. I feel some of the theater students are soo stuck up and most of them new freshman feel like it is high school so some of new freshmen will try to kiss up to the seniors to get roles in their senior plays. I lived in the dorms and I try every weekend to come back home becuz #1 I was sooo boring over the weekends nothing do #2 no place to go if u don't have a car. I sooo glad in transferred to another college.
