There's no such thing as a good school, only good students. You could go to St Martins but if you don't work hard it's all for crap really.

The likes of St.Martins is good to try to get into if you want to become part of londons backslappers network and to get 'famous' for being in that network and having 'connected' friends rather than the standard of your work. in my humble opinion its over-rated, tehres probably a lot better courses out there that aren't up their own bottoms.

I went to St Martins and it opened doors certainly. Once you are there it doesnt matter where you went.

I went to st martins and graduated with a 1st in graphic design. But that wasn't the school per se, I worked f**king hard for 3 years.
I recommend the school for the great tutors and industry professionals teaching there (phil baines being the best typography tutor I had).
There are also lots of live briefs going on all the time (projects with real life companies). Definitely good to know who's who in london.
Easiest way onto that degree is via the CSM foundation course.

"The top design programs according to BusinessWeek's expert panel"
i presume they got in some "design experts" to write this list and it wasnt just the eggheads at Business Week that made this up.
Again, these will all be schools who shout their own praises like the London bigwigs so the likes of smalltime courses that are just as good but at smaller uni's or colleges are never going to be heard.

I definitely agree that the main thing is the passion and dedication of the individual pupil regardless of which school they go to.
