SCAD students are disappointed and frustrated with the attitude towards the university’s returning students. Freshmen, “rising sophomores,” are continuously prioritized over students that have demonstrated and upheld SCAD’s standards and values over years of scholarship. It is crucial to the success of every student enrolled that these thoughtless and disrespectful policies end.

Many of us love our experience here at SCAD and want to see our school continue to be the most successful school for arts and design in the country. In order to do this, it is absolutely essential that SCADhome, SCADcares and all of SCAD’s administrators provide the resources for their hardworking students to succeed.
