How good is Parsons School of Design? Which area does the school excel? e.g. interior design, fashion, graphic

I’m a Hong Kong student and planning to come to the states for Uni. I would really want to do either advertising design or marketing, or interior design sort of majors.
Do you have any recommendations apart from Parsons?
Im pretty sure I will have enough marks from my IB grade, so academics requirement is not that of a constraint to me.

Please tell me what do you think !
I really appreciate that

Should I get a certificate in graphic design?

David Montgomery Jr. — Mon, 01 Nov 2010 19:25:08 +0000

I already have a BA in business administration with a marketing concentration and I’ve been doing graphics stuff for years. Would a certificate make a difference to an employer? I want to get a job in marketing where I can also do design projects. The certificate course is online and $1500 (Gatlin Education through Cal State).

Is buying a $999 Mac Book for a Graphic Design Major a good idea?

David Montgomery Jr. — Mon, 25 Oct 2010 15:13:03 +0000

I’ll be starting off my freshman year in the fall and need a laptop. I’m majoring in Graphic Design, and so far I’ve heard that purchasing a Mac is a better call. However, I don’t have a lot of money to be spending just on computer right now and the cheapest Mac on the market is $999. Is that a suitable computer for someone going into the graphic design field?

10 Points for best answer.

What is a good graphic design program?

I am starting a marketing company but i want to be able to design things myself.

Do I want graphic design or something else for my major? Please help!?

I want to double major in marketing and graphic design. The thing is, I’m not sure graphic design is exactly what I want.

I can handle people critiquing me, very easily. I am not a fan of making logos but could do it if asked. I want to focus on things like photo manipulation, and creating something sort of like a digital painting. I don’t want to make random abstract designs with no shade and no tint. I don’t care much for pairing my work with words unless its the thing my work is supposed to be advertising.

is it possible to work as graphic designer while you’re graduated in marketing?

David Montgomery Jr. — Tue, 19 Oct 2010 15:12:57 +0000

during your college, you take marketing management as your major. however, you strongly feel that being a graphic designer is your ‘call of living’. is it possible to work as graphic designer but then you have degree in marketing? and after all these times you learn graphic design by yourself (without formal education)
