Platt College Alhambra

Love my school, for those that are not use to a school that goes straight to the point and fast pace it may not be the school for you. HCT is priced everywhere the same the difference is their hands on program and smaller classes that make this school appropriate for self motivated students.

Great School! I was working for a major print firm before I finished my Bachelor's Degree. I have since managed my own film processing and graphic design office for a glass company. After those experiences, I have been working in the Entertainment Industry in the greater Los Angeles area.

I have read some of the other post and current student ratings. I have to say that most of you are uninformed. The school is accredited with the U.S. Government, and very much worth the effort you happen to put into it. All you have to do is work on your portfolio.

Many students out of high school should not have been accepted due to their lack of drawing skills and overall effort to become a successful graphics artist. Employers take you very seriously. It's the employee and or manager who is very much afraid of loosing their job to you because of your multi-media skills.

I personally went to community college and worked as a picture framer for an art and crafts store prior to applying to Platt College. Most of my classmates from the associates program unfortunately are not working in their field of study. However! Most of my classmates from the 3D Bachelor's program have or are currently working in the Entertainment Industry. Anywhere from film, video gaming, cartooning and in theme parks. Such as in print, animation, and or art and design. The others are managing print department for several companies.

Recommended for high school grads? No!

People who have worked and experienced life as a whole? Yes!

Whether your choice for any school, including four year schools. Work on your concept art and story boarding prior to attending this school as you would have to do with other major design colleges. Also. Learn you key commands. That is how you land your job and impress the lead artist. It's up to you!

Is this school accredited for the ultrasound tech program???

Good'

Well for me it hasnt been a waste of time or money. I have to admit when I first started I kinda doubted the school. But, since our new director for DMS got hired Dr. Dezire she has literally handpicked out sites and really strive to help complete our program but also is pushing us to become great sonographers. Since she has reconstructed the whole program. For future sonography students will not be disappointed with there experience.
