I would like to know about good Art colleges in Los Angeles area. I have done some research and the results were nothing but schools with rushed programs and put-together educations (AI, Devry etc.) I want a real education in Graphic Design. To learn the basics, and move on to higher education. My goal is not to make money, is to get a well rounded, effective education.

Any artists out there with the same interest in mind, and perhaps a suggestion?

P.S: I got accepted at the Art Center College of design. I did not attend because of their astronomical prices…
My vision is not limited to fancy private schools!
