Rating: Summary: terse and irregular Review: i have a 1996 edition of this book which, oddly, i purchased in 1999. let the buyer beware: they do not update this book on a very regular basis as far as i can tell. there are interesting and useful facts in the school profiles, however, no two schools have exactly the same "questions" answered in their profiles, making it difficult to compare schools because there are few easily viewable commonalities. students are not interviewed and the profiles seem to be direct quotes from the press releases offered by individual schools. therefore, as an art student myself, i have found it much more useful to visit the webpages and campuses of the colleges i am interested in, consulting ARCO as little as possible.
Rating: Summary: Art Students College Guide Review: This is not a review, but a question. Is there not an updated edition of this book, as some things have changed since 1996.
Rating: Summary: Good basic information but would like more information Review: We checked an older version of this out of the library. It was good in that it had the basic information listed for a lot of art schools but there were only a few pages of very general advice about how to pick a school. I needed more advice about this. I would have liked to have known how they picked art schools within universities. Did they just include any art school program that returned a questionnaire sent out to them or was there some criteria used before including or excluding them? This book serves as an okay encyclopedia of art schools but art students could use further guidance in picking a school.
