I looked into washington, and I cannot go there. I dont have any kind of art, and I don't think I can get into one next semester.

What? You need an art class? Seriously? The last I took art was in 8th grade.

Yeap. You need a semester of some sort of art. The same goes for the ones in California.

At any rate, I have not art-ed since third grade...

Unless they count the ice-sculpting team.

Washington State University has art classes (I took one) and is rated among the top 25 schools in the country in this Wall Street Journal story.

I can attest that it has good engineering programs.

I mean, they require your having had an art class in high school

Art's an easy class, though. Just pick a picture and paint it, man. Or take, like, grade 9 art or something. I knew a girl way back when in high school. She was in grade 10 at the time, and was friends with one of my friends (who was, like me, in grade 12 at the time). Anyhow, she was allowed to take the grade 12 art class (because the art classes had no pre-requisite; she didn't require grade 9-11 art classes to take grade 12 art), and she did fiiiiiine. If you need to, have a talk with the principle or vice-principle. Set things straight; they are usually very accomodating.

Again, art classes are easy as hell, man. Except for maybe sculpturing.

The problem is, no arts start second semester, and the new system is such a pain in the ass to use that the office-folk are being very strict about making changes.

I checked the Washington State website (mostly because I could not believe a state would require an art class to get into college) and they require an art class OR an additional academic class. So WSU would work for you, Motep. CR seems like a trustworthy source on the quality of the university.

I thought that was the modification they had made for the incoming class in 2012. : /
