I have to agree about The Art Institute. I graduated in the 90's. At that time, my debt was 25-30K. After graduation, I couldn't find a job in the field..too many out there applying. The school. I had 1 job for 6 months and the company closed. I went back to the Art Institute( as they offer job placement for graduates ) and was told the in school students come first and whatever they don't choose I can pick from !!???There was nothing left !! I had to take a job with a convenience store...my bills skyrocketed...I had to do several forebearances and now my debt is 59K. I am about to give up on the loan because they keep raising the payment. Now at 192.00 a month. I make 10.50 an hour and can't find a higher paying job. My suggestion for all artist wannabes...STAY AWAY FROM THE ART INSTITUTE !!!Go to your local college and get the same education for a 1/4 of the price.
