Ivy League institutions can be said to be the dream of most art students! What Harvard/Yale/Cornell/Penn/Brown/Columbia In addition to rattan schools, there are also world-class schools with "large flow and high reputation", such as Stanford, MIT and Berkeley. In the heart of natural light, these "studying abroad tycoons" have always been like this: gorgeous! Shiny! Elegant! high-end! A body of immortal qi!
For those who choose to study abroad in the arts, many of them also have such a "mass flow famous school complex/Ivy League complex" natural light, which is always received when answering private messages for everyone. Such private messages:
Some students insist on going to rattan school
... ... Princeton
... ... Learn photography
... ... Must be Fashion photography study abroad ... ...
I told him it was really inappropriate
And recommended fashion photography
CSM、LCF、Parson、SVA
The classmate said that he had never heard of these colleges and would not go to
I explained to him how good photography is in these schools
Students' strength: I won't listen
Then the natural light will contact him I found that he could no longer receive private messages after canceling his attention
First of all, some institutions with very high comprehensive rankings
There are not many artistic choices at all
For example, Harvard
Natural light can't find the major of garment design studying abroad

Secondly, even if there is, it is not their specialized field
such as Studying Abroad in Fashion Design According to professional ranking, the strongest king should be produced in CSM Central Saint Martin, Parsons, LCF Lunshi, FIT and other institutions
Harvard in this circle, the rank is estimated to be platinum
A student who wants to learn astrophysics, after years of hard work, was finally admitted by Beiying! Is skating funny?
A student who wanted to study genetic engineering started his academic research in Yangmei. Is skating funny?
Let's turn it around, isn't it funny to go to Beihang to learn illustration?
The truth is the same, students! If you want to learn photography and clothing, you need colleges and universities with McQueen and Laofo as alumni, not Yuan Longping and Qian Xuesen!
If you don't believe it, you can see QS Ranking
Let's take a look at Art&Design
Global rankings of institutions in the arts and design category
Among the top 10 in 2018,
Only MIT (4th)
Stanford (10th)


The rest of the high ranking overseas universities are not on the first page!!!
Yale, 29; Oxford, 35; Princeton, the natural light has not been found for 3 pages!
So, is today's title: Harvard/Yale/Stanford and other "famous schools with large traffic and high reputation", as well as the "Ivy League schools" that everyone aspires to, really suitable for art study?
What is the answer? According to the above explanation of natural light, it is not suitable, right?
Natural light feels that,
The most appropriate answer is:
Not suitable overall, but there are surprises
First of all, studying abroad in the arts has a little overlap with studying abroad in a large category
But in a completely different field
Most of the "comprehensive ranking overlords"
All are choices for studying abroad
Learning business, science and literature
The ranking of these categories is OK
Attached are the top 10 universities in 2018 comprehensive ranking


But if you study art, the comprehensive ranking will not have much reference value
It's like there's no math major in the Academy of Fine Arts
There are few art majors in comprehensive colleges
That's why
The first three pages of art school ranking
There are basically no "little overlords" studying abroad
They don't even have an art major
I can't be on the list,
Not to mention ranking!!!
This is what natural light says: "The whole is not suitable"
The surprise is that there are few universities with high comprehensive rankings
Still has a super powerful art major
But watch out Wow, it's rare
Very little, very little, very little!!!
And there are many restrictions on the choice of majors
Here are some options known by natural light:
Option 1: MIT

No. 1 in the world comprehensive ranking in 2018
MIT Advantage Major: Architecture, Urban Planning, Interactive Design
Option 2: Harvard

No. 3 in the world in 2018

Option 5: University of Pennsylvania

Option 6: Yale University

16th in the world in 2018
Major: costume design, stage design, etc
(In fact, the whole Drama department is very good!)
Option 7: University of Edinburgh

Ranked 23rd in the world in 2018
Specialty: architecture, landscape, interior, etc
PS: Tutors studying in Natural Light Art! If you know other options or supplement the above professional choices! The message area starts your performance!!
Although there are some choices, we also see that the specialty is limited! If you choose an art college, you will be more professional.
And your environment will be more artistic! A school has several majors that study art. VS The whole school is learning art, and the atmosphere is not the same!!!
Attached is the ranking of the top 20 art schools in the world in 2018
