I went to the art institutes in Denver.. man, was that a bad move .. really expensive compared to other schools.. I ended up quiting in one year.. 15 g's in debt and nothing to show for it.. Wish i would have went to state college.. get a better well rounded degree..

alot of what i've 'heard' is that it's better in the long run to get a general liberal arts education in college (major in your respective field) but learn a breadth of things.
then if you're still serious about design, go to grad school. they're much better and for more serious individuals.

and Yes, most colleges offer numerous scholarships in graphic design and fine arts, just check with the school. either based on financial need or portfolio.
