学生评价
Campus Housing: There are about two building within the campus. The Schotts building is the oldest building within the college. I have my fair share in the place. There isn't much room, but it's enough to bring whatever necessary stuff you need. Plus, you get close to your roommate, getting to know them, and the students in the building are friendly so you'll get along great. Design Studio Building or DSA is very spacious. So, there is a lot of room to store many belonging. But I heard that not a lot of students interact with each other since they have their own space.
Overall Experience: The staff and student body are very friendly. The staff make you feel at home and do help you the best they can if there is any problem need working. The students are friendly and do give you advice to help you out the college years.
Health & Safety: Our security is very dependable and really focus on keeping us safe.
Campus Housing: It is very nice especially the upperclassman dorms are very very nice.
Athletics: Its an art school its not made with sports in mind yes we do have sport clubs but it isn't the focus.
Health & Safety: The private security staff on campus does a great job keeping us safe. I have never felt at risk on our campus.
Campus Housing: Living on campus as a freshmen really builds a foundation for your social life at CCAD. Being involved and getting to know the other residents makes adjusting to your college life much easier. Schottenstein is a great building for that, DSA tends to be more independent and less community driven.
Overall Experience: Teachers are wonderful and once you make some friends everything is so much better! Wide verity of classes. Class size is normally 25 kids (gen classes).*(5)
