Hi Jason,

I'm attending Art Center this fall and I was wondering whether you took academic classes on top of your studio classes, since you've been to other colleges prior to Art Center. It already seems like you're barely getting any sleep, and I'm taking both academic and studio classes!

Art Center gives you your schedule for the first term. You can drop classes but I wouldn’t recommend it. If you can make it through this first term and do well, you’ll be able to handle anything. I waived the English class so I had six classes for first term. On top of the six classes I commute from Santa Monica :)

My advice is to be ready to focus and put your time in for every class you’ve got. It will probably be the most intense term of your life, but it is all worth it :) Don’t expect a whole lot of sleep. For most of the term I woke up at 4:45 and got to school before the sun came up, and I usually didn’t leave until about 10 PM.

Congrats on getting in. If you have any other questions let me know :)
