If I want to be a photographer as a career what is the best college to go to?

If you are interested in photography, you can take photography classes at almost any school!

However, if you are serious about photography as a career, there are several different options for schools.

1.) You can apply to an art and design school. That way, you we be in a completely creative environment with other people who are studying the arts, and get an education in photography at a school that specializes in it.

2.) You can be a photography major at a non-art college as well. Many different schools and universities have fine arts programs as well as other non-arts programs.

3.) You can minor in photography at a non-art college. That way, you can have plenty of time to explore the fine arts, and take photography classes, but also major in something academic. That way, you can specialize in both an academic and artistic discipline.
