Does anyone know of good grad programs in Digital Arts? It seems they're mainly on the West Coast.

I know UC Santa Cruz is offering an MFA in Digital Arts/New Media, what are some other ones?

    Basically, if you want to get well networked and want your MFA paid for, go to a University of California school. I'm serious. All the schools are well networked together, so your chance to connect with more colleagues is maximized. I got my MFA from UCSD where I studied with Lev Manovich and other heavyweights in the field and now am well connected to many of the majors in the field at different UCs because of this.

    The UCSC program is great. Sharon Daniel is great there. Also, I would highly recommend the MAT program at UCSB. Berkeley's program is growing right now.

    These programs are well funded as well unlike other private and more exclusive schools.

    Ok, I'm teaching at <a href="SFAI</a>," title="www.sfai.edu/">SFAI</a>,">www.sfai.edu/">SFAI</a>, so you should take courses there as well ;) Email me privately to discuss more specifics...

    I just wanted to make a small correction, the UCSC programs website is danm.ucsc.edu. The program covers Digital Art and "New" Media (my quotes). It looks like you already chose Columbia, which should be a wonderful experience, but if anyone else is reading this and interested, check it out. I'm part of the program and I've had a great experience.
