Student review [#20291] for Interior Design
at Paris College of Art

This is my first semester at PCA and I am very disappointed with this school. I am considering not coming back next semester. There are leaks in the ceiling, there is no soap, some of the bathrooms are completely inoperable, the printer is always down, the ceiling is missing in some classes, there’s no library or even space to sit and work. For this tuition, this is scandalous. This school feels like a scam. The worst is that we are expected in class without heating in DECEMBER. We are unproductive in class because of this issue. The administration’s offices have heaters but our classrooms do NOT. I am hearing that it won’t be fixed until next semester. I know there are heaters somewhere in this school but we don’t have them. I am actually curious where the $30,000 we all pay in tuition goes to. Every student I have talked to feels the same way. With that much money, the school should be renting out heated spaces to meet or at least make Zoom an option. Instead, we are expected on campus and freeze all day. I can’t draw or type because my fingers are too cold.

I have enjoyed my teachers and my studies. But the school itself is a shame.
