I'd like to attend school asap (I've already taken a few years off since I got my BA) so I'm planning to apply to basically every good program that offers spring admission.

I know USC has spring admission, but--based on getting rejected before with no interview--I don't think I'm top-tier material. What other schools offer spring admission?

Correct me if I am wrong, but I thought students, who are admitted in the Spring, matriculate into the program the spring of the following year.

For example, if I apply for Spring 2011, I will begin in Spring 2012.

I think you're confused because spring is stated as one year later due to the semester starting after the new year (i.e. fall '10/spring '11).

Off the top of my head I know

American University

and


San Francisco Art Institute

both have at least one impressive alum but if anyone on here can offer insight on these programs that would be great.

Thanks; I'll look into those two. Off the top of my head I've heard of them, but I don't know much about either program specifically... Maybe someone else does.
