Reputation, faculty, rankings, location, exposure to people and job opportunities through networking
Course Curriculum
Since the design is always changing and evolving the course and curriculum are required to do the same. With COVID learning has definitely been changed
Exams
I had to submit 2 LORs, CV was optional. Since I was applying to art school, I made sure to highlight points that showed my involvement with the field but also that I was more than that.
Placement
Don't have too much experience of this yet. But attended a lot of talks from companies and there's a good career center on campus too
Events
It's an open campus situated by a beautiful canal and is mainly on a hill next to Brown University. It has a large student population and everyone is really friendly. It's a pretty quiet town though, but very pretty. The risk library is amazing and has a huge collection. They have a nature lab which is an amazing resource as well. Clubs aren't that active but students have really heavy workloads so there isn't much time for that anyway.
Fees
Around $80,000 per year
Faculty
Class size is usually 15 , so 15:1 . They're all very well educated, approachable, and knowledgable about the field. They have a lot of experience and many of them are RISD graduates.
Hostel
Yes I live on campus. The newer buildings are amazing but the older ones are alright. They're all going under construction soon. North hall for freshmen is recommended.
