How much money would you expect to spend per month on average as a freshman in Savannah? Trying to budget for an expensive summer 2027 goal. Obviously I'm going to try and get a job the second I get down there, but I want to have a decent idea in advance of how much it's going to cost for food/necessities freshman year.

So I've had my academic interests/intent declared for a while now but I can't figure out how to actually register for classes and I am finding conflicting information about whether you even register for classes during your first quarter or they are just assigned to you. Same thing with declaring my major/minors, bc it seems you have to meet with your advisor in person to do that but my roommates said they already picked their majors, and idk how they would've done that. Help/advice appreciated!

What computer should i get if im going to be an illustration student in the fall at SCAD?

ik they are assigned to us but idk when

Hello! I’m not sure if this project is still a thing or if the quarter has started yet, but i remember in my 3D Design class, there was a project where we built things out of cardboard. I was wondering if anyone needed any. Just moved and have an absolute ton of it. Just comment or DM me I guess if anyone is interested in it for school

Im in incoming freshman looking to major in production design or themed entertainment design...I have absolutely no clue what's good and not good when it comes to laptops. I own a chromebook, but i know i can't get the right applications on it and its old and slow anyways so i need to upgrade. I received a scholarship that will reimburse me up to $2k for any technology I get for college, so was wondering if anyone had any tips or recommendations for what kind of laptop i should buy?

disclaimer: i own no apple products so im hesitant to get a macbook. i was however thinking about getting an ipad as well for drawing and such, if i can get both a laptop and ipad for $2k or less. any recommendations for that as well would be greatly appreciated!!

I'm a rising high school senior and I was wondering if anyone knows how much I can expect to receive in scholarship money from the academic and achievement scholarships? I've really got my heart set on SCAD but I would NEED as much scholarship money as possible. My current SAT score is 1450 and my unweighted GPA is around 4.3 I think. I'd like to major in fashion design. However, my fashion portfolio isn't very strong (my hand embroidery is much better than actual garment construction), but I dance ballet and am a fairly good writer, so I was wondering if it's possible to submit a mixed portfolio with all my different art forms displayed. I'll also be applying to local scholarships and I qualify for Zell Miller, but I was just curious if anyone knew how much I could potentially receive from official SCAD scholarships. Also, when is the best time to apply and submit my portfolio?

I'm a sophomore and I wanted to minor in thed but I already used up one elective bc I changed my major. Does this mean for my minor I have to do four extra classes?

I found a beautiful house near Forsyth Park: $3.2 k, 2 br, 2 ba, 1,500 sq ft.

I need a place starting in September and am looking for another grad student to rent with. We could rent this together, or find another place if we’re compatible.

I’m 29, male, LGBTQ+ friendly.

really random but does anyone know how the bus routes will look for the coming 26-27 year cause of the removal of o-house and the addition of forty eight? im just super curious how the routes may change

Hi everyone - I’m starting my BFA in Arch History in January of 2027. I have a few core classes done from my previous school, but I’ll have to do the scad foundations as well. This is the earliest I could start unfortunately. Will I graduate later? Should I just do a summer quarter as well?

I intend on then getting my masters in Architecture at SCAD. If anyone has had a similar experience please let me know. I’m excited to start!!

Trying to help my daughter plan for her freshman year. The room dimensions generally available online do not match the visual evidence I observe on the many dorm tour videos. For example, 11' 11" room width with two beds each 36" wide and two nightstands each 17" wide results in 37" remaining between the two nightstands; this is obviously incorrect (looks like closer to 9" at best. Does anyone have real-life measurements? EDIT: I was using the incorrect bed width. Should be 38". Still seems way off though. From replies, I'm now getting an estimated room width closer to 125"; well short of the 143" I see quoted everywhere.

Just finished the quarter with a 92.9. Is that an A according to scad? And also will it round to a 93?

hey y'all, was wondering if anyone knows when we get assigned course schedules as incoming freshman, ive looked on the scad website for a while but I can't really find anything resembling specifics. anyone know?

EDIT: Got a Legion 5 laptop and will probably bring my desktop over as well. It's seems to work well so far

Going into freshman year this fall. So I've got a desktop but I figure I should also get a laptop for classes etc. I was thinking to get the most performance and make it useable for projects I best go with a gaming laptop as it would have better specs.

Obviously as much RAM as possible and I'd guess a GPU is preferable to integrated graphics

The issue is, gaming laptops are notoriously (and I know it from experience too) just awful products from their reliability to their cooling and fans it all pretty much sucks. Not to mention they are overpriced and usually butt ugly

Would it just be better to have a little shitbox laptop and keep my desktop at the dorms, or maybe even get a Mac? Not sure what to do

I'm a film student if that helps, and I'll definitely take some scattered animation and game design classes even if not for my major

I’m a rising senior in high school and just finished my first of two weeks of seminars at scad Savannah. I like most of it, but I hate the way the staff is pushing the ai bullshit. i checked TikTok to see if what other people thought about it and there were videos saying students were required to use ai for certain assignment. is it really that integrated and if so, does anyone actually like it???

It sucks Royal isn’t showing Odyssey in IMAX or their PLF theater this week. Next best theater is GTC Pooler’s big GTX screen.
Was wondering if anyone knew if they cropped the aspect ratio to be full widescreen. Nolan shot it in the IMAX ratio which looks more closer to 4:3. I was gonna go to Atlanta later this week and catch it in the 70mm IMAX.

Just wondering if anyone may have seen it in GTX and can tell me if they cropped it to fit the entire screen.

I'm a transfer student looking to join SCAD in the winter quarter. I had heard from my advisor that 1.) housing is first-come, first-serve and that, currently, housing is at capacity and 2.) scholarship offers are reduced by 30% should a student live off campus. I was wondering why that is? It's penalizing students for living off-campus, when SCAD can't even accomodate all of their students. Additionally, with freshman being required to live on-campus, shouldn't SCAD anticipate this overflow? Why promise students money when they can't promise shelter?

I would love to build worlds through Production Design across all mediums, but especially for fashion runway shows from time to time. I was thinking about helping build cool sets and scenes for the fashion club whenever they put on shows (maybe take some sewing classes on the side for personal interest). Because of that, I originally thought about majoring in Production Design and minoring in Fashion Marketing and Management.

However, after reading this Reddit post (https://www.reddit.com/r/scad/s/0crQsTmbJW), it seems that the Production Design program isn't what it used to be. Instead, people were suggesting a Film and TV major with a Sculpture minor. I thought, "Okay, I'll just add the Fashion minor on top of that." Sure, it would probably take me five years, but it seems doable.

Then again, just because you know how to make sculptures and props doesn't necessarily mean you know how to design an entire runway show, you know? Also, would I even have enough time for clubs if I'm doing two minors?

Idk, what do y'all think is the best major/minor academic path?

Just moved to Flemington New Jersey! Looking for some fun SCAD people to connect with around to hang out and do some fun projects!

I've seen a generic floorplan for Turner House but am wondering about the building layout. It looks like horseshoe and I'm just trying to figure out where the stairs and elevator(s) are in proximity to where my room will be. Is there a diagram with that info showing where different numbered rooms might be located? Thanks.
