I recommend this as a secondary school, for additive studies to your original degree, rather than your primary degree school, as the job placement rate is rather low, and some classes seem either unnecessary as a requirement, or do not facilitate a full-degree of expertise about your field of interest, beyond culinary, which seems to have the highest rate of job placement available. If you're lucky, you'll be hired out during your tenure, without having to go through the brief, limited, and not always accommodating job assistance program. (At the time, I was given 6 months of assistance, and that was it, though, I suppose if you have a grade A portfolio and demo reel, you won't have trouble finding a job, or already have one at this point.)
