Yeah, like I said I don’t know much more but I’ll ask around. If you have myspace or facebook you might want to search out people that already go there and ask them some questions, especially people that came from other parts of the country.

BTW, what are you looking to major in? And by no means do i expect you to know for sure, but what peaks your interests in the arts?

Hey! I'm like moving to Chicago in the fall too! What is your major going to be? I'm going for Fashion Merchandising. I'm still deciding between Columbia and the Illinois Institute of Art... Did you look at that school too? I won't know anyone in the area either! :-/

Lived in South Loop 2006-2008... good area, no worries... you'll get beggars and what not, and maybe some crazy influxes of people when events are in the area... other than that you are fine.

can't say much about seattle though... 2 different cities.

Chicago isn't really much of a fashion hub. However, if you do insist on coming here, I would choose Columbia over IIA for such a pursuit.

While at Columbia, I would take advantage of the cheap flights out of Chicago to NYC and visit FIT (www.fitnyc.edu/) and check out what they have to offer, you might end up transferring.

As much as it pains me to admit it, lincolnparker also has a point about Parson's (http://www.parsons.newschool.edu/)
