The Art Institute Of Charlotte This school is a scam,fraud they cheat the kids out of their money.Get the news transcripts from channel 36 in Charlotte, North Carolina

apparently they were right, The Art Institutes were sued by the government for 11 billion

just google it tons of articles about that . I was fooled into going there with the promise of a job placement I remember it saying it in the commercials but when it was time to graduate that last week they tried to get me a job at Bestbuy , office depot, and Office max. They say the school is 28k for the graphic design plan but it then turns into 90k (ask any student there). The teachers barely teach you anything if you ask questions they tell you to look in your book.  Do not waste your time on this place find a community collage much cheaper and im sure they have better teachers.

I am sorry that you had such a bad experience. I have no idea what you went through so cannot comment with any fairness. Yet I wonder about a person that criticizes "kids that could barely spell their names get admitted into this school," since it is obvious that you need some of the remedial training that you are so angry about having to go through given your sentence structure, syntax, and spelling. I think you are right, there needs to be something better in place to stop students from entering that have little chance in succeeding in an accelerated program structure. Without a solid entrance requirement in place there will be students allowed to enter the system that are unprepared for a very tough fast moving system. Yet I wonder how these potential students can be served, and by what system? If not here where do they go when their pre-college training did not train them for success in any university or college setting, and this is their only chance to make a go at the art training needed to make it in a tough marketplace? At the foundation of this system is the idea that anyone if they are trained correctly can learn to create art. This goes back to the John Nagy commercial art system that was first advertised in comic books back in the 50s. See: http://www.weberart.com/signature/gnagy.html This idea does work when the student is prepared to do what they must to make this learning happen. Yet without a clear focus and hard work one cannot do what is required to be a working artist (whatever your medium). As for the sickness, remember this is a corporation, which tend to be opaque until the problem is shown to be a real threat, and not gossip or a fabrication. Health issues are always important so if what you say is true and there was an outbreak of tuberculosis brought on by uncaring officials then this is very bad. Do you have the proof to support your allegation?
