College and New York

Applying to college is the most dreadful process ever... then comes the waiting and waiting. I'd rather die.

Anyways, my top school choice is CUNY CityTech. I know, it's not the most prestigious or whatever, but it's the most practical. As an out of state student, the tuition is affordable, and this school has all of the programs and courses and majors I need. It's hard finding what I want at schools like NYU and Pace. I know that here, at least I'll be learning what I want to. The school got good reviews online! If I go here, I think I will stay for 4 years, and then do my masters somewhere else... If I do my masters. I think.


Looking at the catalogue, here's what I'm really interested in.


Degrees
  • Bachelor of Technology in COMMUNICATION DESIGN - specialization in either web or graphic design
  • Desktop Publishing - Certificate
  • Art and Advertising Design/AAS
  • Associate in Applied Science in MARKETING MANAGEMENT AND SALES

Courses
  • Vector Art Editing
  • Graphic Arts Estimating I & II
  • Desktop Publishing Production I & II
  • Print Production for Designers
  • Graphic Design Principles l & II
  • Publications Media
  • Communication Design I
  • Typographic Design l & II
  • Digital Photography l
  • Web Design l
  • Web Design – Advanced XHTML and CSS
  • Web Analytics: SEO, SEM
  • Desktop Publication Design I
  • Web Site Architecture
  • Design for Mobile Devices
  • Web Design lll – Design Studio
A lot of these things I already know, but I'm hoping that I can fill any gaps I might have. Basically, I want to be a digital media business machine! 

I have also applied to UCF, Pace and wil be applying to NYiT and NYU PolyTech.

I think I should hear back from CUNY soon... I applied 9 weeks ago. THE WAIT IS SLOWLY KILLING ME
