Not sure if it was meant to be sarcastic or what. I’m not saying no SCAD alumni will ever accomplish this, but if you’re going to pay full price tag you mind as well go somewhere with a better fine arts department as most concept artists/matte painters have painting/illustration backgrounds and those departments are not as strong at SCAD as they are elsewhere.Īlso I really don’t understand the comment about the Gnomon DVDs and Montgomery Hall. The other reason I touched on SEQA classes is a lot of people do the ITGM major and SEQA minor thinking they’re going to be concept artists or do game art. I still stand by what I said before in that 99% of minors at SCAD are a waste and you’d be better off taking 8 classes you’re really interested in. I said not to take the Sequential Art MINOR because it includes classes like inking and visual story telling, which are not relevant to modeling - however, the SEQA Anatomy classes would be fabulous for a modeler to take. However, the OP is asking about financial aid/how to pay for SCAD, to which my advice is don’t waste money on minors that won’t really contribute to your discipline. I don’t disagree I took Drawing for Sequential Art and it was great. I’d be happy to recommend certain classes if you have a more general idea of what you want to do. If you have any more questions let me know. Do not rely on taking out a Sallie Mae loan for 10k every quarter. Secure private loans BEFORE you come to SCAD, preferably for the full amount you need (at least do them year by year.) They are hard to get right now and taking them out quarter by quarter will almost guarantee you will find yourself screwed junior year when you suddenly can’t get another one, you’re 80k in debt, and you don’t have a degree.You can literally save tens of thousands over a 4 year degree by living off campus. If you get a big scholarship, defer enrollment until you are 21 to avoid losing 30%. You could live in the NICEST 1br in all of Savannah for that price, don’t live on campus! You do lose 30% of your scholarship by moving off, BUT not if you begin classes after you turn 21. On campus, you will be paying about $800 to live in a tiny tiny room and on top of it $400+ in meal plans. This is a HUGE rip off, a 1br in Savannah costs about $700, you can easily find a room for $300-$400. This will also give you time to build your portfolio. Why would you pay $3500 to take Math 101 at SCAD? You can get classes pre-approved for transfer, cover your gen eds elsewhere.
