Looking for university in Philly area

Recommended Posts

I know I want to be a web designer, but I?m having a hard time finding a university to transfer to so I can get my bachelors. I am current going to Delaware County Community College and I am looking for a university in the Philly area.

 

The University of the Arts has a program to program transfer. If you get your A.A.S in Interactive Media with at least a 3.0 you are awarded junior status. That would be awesome, but the tuition is unaffordable at $30,000.

 

My school also has transfer agreements with University of Phoenix and DeVry, but I don?t trust those schools.

 

I have been looking at job listings and some say they require a degree in graphic design, some just say design, some say web design. Its all confusing.

Hi,

 

You should watch my video on web design vs. graphic design - it may help.

 

And you may want to read these articles:

PS: be very, very careful about taking on student loan debt ... it can be very dangerous financially.

 

I hope that helps,

 

Stefan
