It's were I wanted to go after high school, but never did. They sent me literature which led to applications for and offers of partial scholarships even. I also planned on making sure to get some classes in at the Arts Student League.

This isn't bad advice if you're not sure about what it is you want to do. I went to a community college for the first year because they offered me a full scholarship (I left anyway the second year), my girlfriend at the time went there, and the credits are accredited and transferable anyway. I was also deeply despondent over not being able to finance my way to Pratt and tensions in my parents' house because I was appointed but resisted going to the U.S. Naval Academy.

All the extra requirements that have been added (under the umbrella term "multiculturalism") are, of course, merely revenue boosters for the institutions. It's bullshit that you cannot be out of there in four years anymore.
