Im a junior in High School atm (im attending an American HS as an exchange student) so its time to start looking into colleges i want to get into. Basically i want to learn about Game Design and 3D Animation/Design/Effects and maybe even film making. So im wondering what kind of requirements would i suspect from a college in those aspects? Do i need super grades and insane SAT scores? Or do i just need good grades in those specific areas with a great portolio?
What i will have when i have graduated from HS: (technical stuff, all A+)
Computer Animation
Engineer Draw CAD
Engineer Draw CAD Applied
Architecture draw CAD
Architecture draw CAD Applied
Engineer and Design Certificate
Architecture and Construction Certificate
Image Software (photoshop)
Computer Service and Support + A global known certificate (if im good enough)
Personal Finances and Management
Other notable things:
1st place in 3 compertitions in the 2007 DoDSE Expo event in Germany (Computer Animation, Architecture+On Site comp) And probably more 1st places from 2008 (in april) and 2009 (hopefully lol)
My GPA is avarage, nothing special. I have yet to take SAT and ACT, but im pretty sure i wont be scoring to high on those, probably around avarage. One really bad thing is that im really bad at math, as i have a D in algerbra 1 and i might even be failing Algerbra 2 (hope not), which would look really bad on transcripts.
So i was wondering, dear hl2.net, if you could recommend me a college suitable to my standards and needs. I have been looking into Vancouver Film School (http://www.vfs.com/), but they are not very clear on their requirements. Does anyone know what SAT scores they require etc? Or do you recommend another college? Am i in good standings or totaly ****ed beyond perception? After all, if i cant go into college in America, i will simply go to college in Sweden which is easier to get into, but i would rather go to America.
