Full Sail
The reason for writing this topic is because I've decided to attend and it seems like a really nice school. Therefore, I thought I'd share it with anybody who is looking to attend college and needs some suggestions.
College Overview and Degree Summary
Full Sail University is a private college that's located in Winter Park, Florida, USA. Originally they were known as Full Sail Real World Education.They have associate's, bachelor's, and master's degree, and serve those degrees in a variety of Entertainment and related programs. A few of those degrees are:
Computer Animation
Digital Arts and Design
Film
Graphic Design
Music Business
Show Production
Recording Arts
Bare in mind that those are not the only programs offered. Programs start monthly, rather than specific months. Most courses last typically 4 weeks long, with two class at once during that time. There are a few exceptions to some of the classes taken, which can last around 8 weeks long.
Tuition
Full Sail's tuition covers just about every supply a student would need for their program, unlike traditional colleges which charge tuition every semester, and then a separate fee for other supplies. In 2007 they started a program called Apple LaunchBox where every student gets an Apple MacBook Pro. Game Development students get an HP laptop. Although a lot of sources say the reduced fee isn't included in the tuition, from my own personal experience I've been told it is included in the tuition and that, if you're using Financial Aid, it will cover the cost.
Student Life
Because the programs start monthly, you'll be staying with your classmates throughout the whole program more than likely. The school does not have student housing, but they do have housing apartments that can provide information to apartment information around the campus, as well as keeps track as to who is looking for roommates. ; there are over 30 apartments within 5 or so miles of the campus.
To find out more about the college, if you're interested (for your own reasons of course), you may visit their website at fullsail.edu

Walker,
Excellent first hub! You have a lot of good information about the school. Very clearly written, too. It looks like a great place. Keep up the great work. - Carol
Thanks for the comments guys. I was hoping it would be useful. Also, thanks for giving me your opinion on the school, Bail Up!
I've not heard of this school, but from what you've uncovered, it sounds like a blast! Very cool. Thanks for sharing, Walker.
Thanks!It's a very good school. Expensive, but worth the money if one could afford it. I've decided not to attend, because I'm interested in different careers. It would be foolish for me to go there for just one career, especially since I don't have the money, lol. Thanks for the comment.
