I think the school itself is outstanding from a faculty and student body perspective. I have no experience or opinions with their online education programs. Self-paced study in online learning environments can be effective but your brain has to be wired for it correctly. As someone that did a part time program in Chicago at the Institute of Design I can only say that studying design is challenging when you do it part-time. I would imagine online and part-time might be harder unless you're exceptionally disciplined.
Alternatively you can just do what folks like David Armano did and start a blog, I think he got a better education than me by doing that. :) Chris Bernard Microsoft User Experience Evangelist [EMAIL PROTECTED] 630.530.4208 Office 312.925.4095 Mobile Blog: www.designthinkingdigest.com Design: www.microsoft.com/design Tools: www.microsoft.com/expression Community: http://www.visitmix.com "The future is already here.

I live in NYC and I am interested in interaction design. I know there are some great full time programs here (NYU, Parsons) but I cannot commit to full-time studies. I was thinking of the online interaction design program at SCAD. Does anyone have an opinion about this program or school? Thanks for your help.
