Aloha. I'm a 1990 Spring BFA Graduate in Illustration. At the time, the college was not accredited and when I went to the University of Hawaii at Manoa to get a teaching degree, they would not accept my diploma or credits from the Academy of Art. Now the Academy of Art University IS accredited and even larger in satellite campuses and programs. They still treat me as an alumni and last month I did a ZOOM online talk to a class about my freelance work. If you are interested in San Francisco and don't mind the high costs and rent, you will do well to consider the AAU. They are very well accommodating to international students and the CITY is very diverse. You will have a broader experience of different cultures and have a solid core of education. In recent visits from Hawaii, I've seen them expand into tech fields like animation and game design. As a student, I believe I received a good education and better than the art college I attended previously. I would suggest taking a tryout semester or a student visit if you get the opportunity to visit San Francisco. How are things specifically now to your needs depends on you contacting them and asking your questions.
