Hi guys does anyone have any idea how is Masters in Game Design at Full Sail University?

#

never heard of it before, but if you are interested in game design, I highly recommend putting USC on your list

@acoustic veldt it's for profit, so I'd say avoid. for profit colleges are highly predatory and usually complete scams

#

it's also not regionally accredited which means that if you end up transferring out other schools won't consider your classes as valid

#

so def avoid

Yes

ocean rapids
# acoustic veldt Yes

in that case if you're mostly looking for the visa, just make sure they are not gonna rip you off with too high of tuition

#

there are plenty offering at lower costs so def compare

#

I am getting a great scholarship

#

Plus its a one year course

#

So i am saving alot of money

#

Coz if i am applying to other universities like uni of Utah or RIT

#

They have double the fees

#

very common tactic with for profit schools

#

Is valid, but still i’ll be saving alot than other universities

#

Coz then i’d have to pay for loving accommodations for 2 yeats

#

Whereas here only one year

#

look up the reviews and check the graduation rates

#

often, it will be low as they will flunk you for arbitrary reasons

#

esp for intls

#

Okay if lets say we dont consider the fees and money part

#

How would the quality of education be there?

#

Like its upto me to study and network

#

But what they offer would that be nice!

#

?

#

usually they will be lower quality than public and other nonprofit schools

#

this one is not accredited by a serious agency

#

that means, it is treated as a diploma mill if you try to get a job with this

#

^a diploma mill is a place that gives people degrees without any standards ie no credibility

Absolutely not

#

Never go to a for profit

#

They’re very rarely accredited

#

And if your degree is not accredited it will not be considered reputable when you’re applying for a job

I recommended it to a friend as a meme

#

prob a scam

ocean rapids
#

and other scams like that

#

they scam mostly clueless/deluded people into thinking that their arts degree is valuable
