Hey all, I'm a current freshmen at Southern Oregon University. I've declared my major (it's currently referred to as a Video Production major, but it's changing next year to Film and Television Production.)and I'm minoring in Emerging Media and Digital Arts because I'd like to work in post production, specifically as a digital video editor.
I'm looking to transfer to a larger university. I was wondering if anyone knew of a University, outside of the typical UCLA and Southern California universities, that has what I'm looking for. Preferably something that is not private, and therefore affordable. I have no problems going out of state-with the sole exception that I need to be able to afford it. (UCLA's out of state tuition is slightly under $60,000, and Southern California's IN STATE is around $60,000. Both those numbers are a bit...heart attack worthy.) I would love a university that has Avid or Premiere to work with, as currently all SOU offers is Final Cut Pro X and I myself have Sony Vegas Platinum 9.
If all else fails, I would like to know if anyone has opinions on UCLA. Is it worth it to go there? Will it really get me ahead in terms of what I want to do? In other words-is the price and sheer amount of debt I would be in worth the education? Any help would be hugely appreciated.
