This school is a catastrophe Not only does my son have one year to go to graduate, as of July 3, 2018 they have decided to close its doors at the end of the year. My son will be stuck with student loans from a school that didn’t fulfill its promises

Sad, but true. Please do not go to this school. You can basically get an A just by showing up for every class. The worst part is that when you try to transfer your credits to a regionally accredited school they will not accept it. When my friend tried to switch majors and switch schools, the local community college wouldn't even recognize aiph credits and just laughed. I'm not talking about art school credits, I'm talking about basic college classes like math, english, and science that were not recognized. Sad, but true.

Animation Student It's a decent school. Like many, it has its ups and downs. The educational side of it is definitely legit, and within my major (Media Arts & Animation), I have definitely crossed paths with a lot of teachers who know what they're talking about, and are very serious about their field. The main thing I wish this school had, which just won't happen because of its location, is that it needs a full-blown campus for student community needs.

The Art Institute of Philadelphia is a great school to attend. I love it... as much as I love art, there is a reasonable amount of diverse categories of media to chose from. As a 9 quarter graphic design student, with a full-time schedule, I am impressed with the flexibility of class schedules.

Good School – You do actually learn things! You can maintain a flexible school schedule and earn a associate's degree in as little as 1.5 years. Class sizes average to about 30 students per class and you only attend a class once a week. This is a good school to go to if you are a very busy person or just love to procrastinate, but I'm not saying the school is easy.
