University in the US for MA in 3D modelling?
However, the only university I had found (Academy of Art) turned out to be very poorly reviewed in various rating sites. When I sent them an email asking about various things the reviewers were complaining about, they became very aggressive and said that if I am to trust random review sites I should just forget the idea of MA in AoA.
The first ever university I learnt about was DeVry, but I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to apply for information.
I guess some of the users here are doing MA's in 3D/Game art so I'd like to ask for your experiences on the various US universities that offer such MA programs.

Actually, I'm kinda thinking about that. But it seems they don't offer a MA, but rather a BA in the relevant field. Certainly, a specialization is better than a progression of certificates though...and you also make a showreel and portfolio there. Interesting.if you are going to spend all that cash, why not think about Vancouver Film School?
I did browse through their webpage, and I must say, although the course seems amazing, the University does a bad job representing itself in their webpage. Thumbs down for a boring and non-user-friendly website.I looked into it a while ago but I think the University of Hawaii at Manoa has a degree program for movie/animators I'm fairly sure they have a BS degree and might have an MA. I stopped looking once I realized that I wouldn't be able to attend any of the classes.
