The best school I've ever attended. I'm super glad that I chose this school from tons of options in NY. The curriculum and teachers are excellent! The Shillington network has helped me to get job. I also only hear good reviews about Shillington from co-workers with who I've worked so far. Definitely worth the tuition. However, at the same time, you have to commit 100% to learn properly because it is super fast-paced and especially portfolio time is chaos. I had known nothing about the design industry before Shillington, but graduated with a great portfolio!
I attended the full time course at Shillington NYC as I wanted to switch my career to become a Graphic Designer. Shillington has provided me with what I need for the long run in the creative industry. I have not only learned about design principles and theory but also upgraded my technical design skills. I still remember one of the teachers telling us during portfolio time: “Nothing amazing in life comes easy, you have to work hard for it!” So if you have a strong passion and would like a change, go for it!!! Don’t hesitate! You will love your time at Shillington just as much as I did.
I highly recommend Shillington for anyone interested in a career in graphic design. I decided to change career paths and become a graphic designer. The structure and curriculum is intensive and fast-paced, which allows you to learn new concepts quickly and put them to use. The teachers are incredible. They are professional, approachable, and fun, yet they all have high expectations of the students and expect them to work hard and be committed during the entirety of the program. The student environment is very positive and supportive and I loved all the interesting and kind people I met. Attending Shillington was one of the best experiences of my life.
I will always have Shillington to thank for giving me a new career in 3 very short months. The only reason it was possible, it was because of how well Shillington planned the program, to the last detail and minute, with careful thought behind everything we did. It was a great mix of art history, art theory and technical skills. My mentor gave me so much great support during the program, and also after graduation when I had questions about the industry and applying for jobs. I can highly recommend Shillington to anyone who want to become a skilled graphic designer. But you have to be to be passionate, dedicated and prepared to give your all during these three months. It was intense and every day a new challenge, but the best experience I've ever had. I wish I could do it all over again.
I still can't believe how Shillington turned my career around. I wanted to move from am HR role to a creative job in my early 30s so needed something short and intense (part time was also an option). Shillington was definitely that! In three months, I graduated with a portfolio, website and all the necessary skills to start working immediately as a freelance graphic designer. The teachers are all working professionals, very knowledgeable and diverse, and the projects are as close to real commercial work as you can get. I felt we got to learn design theory and practice in the right context for working afterwards. It's wonderful to be doing something I love now and my coursemates share the same feeling. We're all happily working in the industry now and still share memories of our time at Shillington. As a training course and experience in itself, by far the best thing I've ever done. Just wish I'd enrolled sooner - once I did there was no looking back.
