<p>I think there is no such thing as THE BEST, because you have to find the program that fits your style, needs and dreams. That being said, I just helped my daughter research and visit a number of schools on the east coast. She has been sure about her college interest in photography for about 4 years now, so we took the search very seriously.<br>

Early top runners were RIT, Hallmark, SCAD and Intermount. After visiting all of them she still hadn't found what she was looking for. She wanted a true hybrid degree that pushed Web, Video and Publishing as major parts of the photography degree. Quite by accident we stumbled upon King College in Bristol, TN. (http://king.edu) Great academic school (important to Mom!) and a stunning Photography degree (important to daughter). 4 year program…photography shooting classes EVERY semester. Lots of group and collaborative projects. Plenty of travel and internship possibilities. King College Photography is a private school, so the price is a bit higher, but so far it seems like well spent money.<br>

We have found the entire admission and enrollment experience to be very pleasant and all faculty and representatives to be incredibly helpful. http://www.KingCollegePhoto.com is where we found the important base information. And even more can be found at http://photography.King.edu. Very impressed so far.<br>

I am sure this kind of program is not right for everyone, but it sure feels right for us.</p>
