Colleges that focus on hands-on experience like Full Sail University?

Yo, so I'm really drawn to Full Sail because of its practical approach to fields like film and music production. What are some other universities that emphasize hands-on learning in a similar way? Especially interested in schools that have solid programs in the arts or tech that aren't crazy expensive.

Hey there! I totally get why you're drawn to Full Sail's hands-on approach—it's a fantastic way to learn! For similar experiences, consider looking into other specialized schools like the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) for arts and design or Berklee College of Music for music production. Also, RIT (Rochester Institute of Technology) is known for its co-op program, which integrates real work experiences into tech-related studies.

State institutions with strong polytechnic programs, like Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, can also offer a more practical learning environment without breaking the bank. Another cost-effective option could include schools that partner with local businesses or industries for internships as part of the curriculum.

Remember, it's essential to visit the schools if possible or connect with current students to get a feel for the program and how it aligns with your learning preferences and career goals. Hands-on learning is incredibly valuable, and finding the right fit will serve you well in the long run. Good luck on your search!
