Minneapolis College of Art and Design Reviews
The students are nice, less drama, not too loud and outragous; the people are what is keeping me here. The professors are nice if you know who to go for, ask upperclassman about who you should try to get, overall I am learning, and I am enjoying the work I am creating and the classes I am in.
Have patience with this school, the bistro staff, and professors; but don't allow them to push you around, especially if you are a disabled student.
