What is your overall opinion of this school?

PNCA is great. There's a lot of opportunity to build connections and meet actual working artists. There are a weekly artist's lectures during the semester and a lot of studio classes bring in guest critics. The administration just implemented a mentoring program that provides every student with a faculty advisor from their department. Basically you meet with your mentor at least twice a semester and talk about whatever you want.This is a HUGE help if you have concerns about one of your classes or need help finding direction in your work. The staff works really hard to make sure every student gets indiviual attention.
