what is the best online course to get certified in Interior Design?

I would love to become an Interior Designer, but need to be certified, I would like to use an online course because I don’t have the right schedule to go to school. It needs to be legit and not too pricy.

As I know, this site has top listing of such college courses online – schools.iblogger.org

What is the best college I can get into?

I’m only sixteen, but I plan to pursue a career in arts, anything from interior design to fine art, I’m really not sure. Currently, I have a 3.8 grade point average. By the end of my high school career, I will have taken three AP courses and the following art classes: ceramics 1, basic drawing, studio art, digital imaging 1 & 2, painting 1 & 2 and art portfolio. I will have had three years of spanish in high school. I will have received two Rhode Island School of Design certificates (ten courses). I will have three years of track, three years of cross country, and at least 200 hours of community service. I work for a local photographer. Also, my high school is one of the top ten best public schools in the country. I just want to have a realistic idea of my options in the future.

Which art schools could I get into, and which other schools? Thankyou!

I think you would love a great Art school in New York City or perhaps California
look into the Fashion Institute of Technology in Manhattan and Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in Los Angeles
good luck :)

KLC Interior Design Graduation 2010

This video is a review of the one year full time Diploma in Interior Design at KLC School of Design, London, showing students working in studio on their projects.

University of Cincinnati or University of Wisconsin-Madison?

Hi, So I’m going to start my junior year of high school soon, & ive been thinking about college a lot lately:

I want to become an Interior Designer; Designing has been my dream. However, my dad doesn’t want me to go to an Art school, just "incase I change my mind".

I live in California, which (unfortunately) has less design programs in schools. I am currently improving my SAT (so estimate result would be around 1800-1900), & I got a 3.8GPA in freshmen, a 3.6GPA sophomore year, which isn’t bad, but it can not get me into UC Berk/LA (the only UCs that have what I want).

So Out-of-State is a big possibility for me, but I don’t know which to go. I want to keep my university in the ranking of top 100 in the nation, for "better-known-better-chance-at-job" reasoning & i don’t want to go to a medicore school with kids who barely tried in high school /:

Cincinnati has "nation’s #1 interior design program", but it’s a TIER 3 school… I can get into Wisconsin-Madison which has a 39th ranking in the nation and an interior design program, but I don’t know what would be better for my future.

What do you think? Personal stories? Anyone who took interior design?
Thank you, in advance!
& to give you a guess, I MIGHT want to come back to California, so I don’t know if the whole "Cincinnati’s co-op" thing would hurt that…

Plus, for my graduate’s school, I want to attend Pratt Institute, but I heard it’s REALLY hard to get in… Would Cincinnati give me a better chance to get in to Pratt, or will Wisconsin?

Neither – for a Bachelors, it is a foolish waste of money with absolutely no extra benefit to look at either of those schools.

In your case, SDSU and CSU-Long Beach are excellent schools to qualify you for grad work. Get fantastic grades at one of them and you will be much more likely to get into a top grad program. Pratt is of course superb.

And let go of the misconception about top 100 – I went to a low ranked state school and got into a top 10 law school. The member of this Group who writes as Ownpool went to a CSU and then to an even higher ranked law school.

QC Design School Call for workshop details 1-800-267-1829 It’s all there, it’s easy, it’s laid out, and there is nothing complicated about it. The exercises are a lot more hands on, and your really get a grasp of what it means to be a colour consultant. Very Helpful -Dominique Raymond It’s a different feeling from other schools, more interactive, more open. At first I was a bit hesitant because I was saying, ok, it’s a workshop only from 9-5, I don’t really know if it’s going to be worth the money, and seriously from the first hour that I was in, I said, my money is worth it. A great forum for learning new ideas! They were just wonderful, the best absolute best conferences I’ve ever ever been to. Thank you for the awesome weekend. Pick a number off the menu, this is just brilliant because when you have someone behind, speaking with you of following up with you, you know you’ve got this work that you need, and just starting with that is A one. Thank you! She was always responsive and took always the time to answer me and was very smiley and happy. It’s a great school, for just my one seminar, I think that people are great, their very friendly, very supportive. I learned so much! They have the passion, its just I can’t help myself, it’s something that excites me. It’s very good knowledge for everybody to just have a background of. I’ve had friends in fact who have asked me, and I’ve recommended them, and they are students. Fabulous, I love it!
