WHY DID YOU CHOOSE STOUT
It was the best opportunity for me when looking into art schools. I knew I could achieve my dream of working in the visual effects industry by going to UW-Stout.

WHAT STANDS OUT IN YOUR COLLEGE EXPERIENCE
One of the biggest things that stood out to me was the ability to have a self-driven education through the guidance and support of professors and mentors. Another would be the level of collaboration within the art program
