    i'm an OCAD AD student - currently finishing up my degree but completed the studio component this year.

    I'm a mature student and only joined in 3rd year (I've been a GD for a while) so not too sure about years 1 and 2.

    I think its a great school. The staff are all in the know about the real world and are agency owners or partners etc.

    Admin wise the school blows bigs time.

    but I agree with Xrtions - its what you make of it - you have to WORK at it. there is no overnight success. Some students I find expect by osmosis or something that they are going to become rock star designer/art directors.

    You have to push yourself and your teachers to get the most out of any program.

    Its a great environment - I'm not sure about this laptop program - lots of money.

    but the schools focus on conceptual idea thinking is core to its success.

    Over and out
