Best Animation Programs in Tennessee

What sets the best animation schools apart from the rest? Is it popularity? Excellent job placement services? Superior production facilities? Cost? Well, it depends. College ranking organizations such as Princeton Review and U.S. News & World Report may place several factors high on the list from faculty resources to program offerings. On the other side, students, alums, and others may consider cost and convenience first.

To determine which schools deserve to be called “the best,” college ranking agencies consider (1) number of program offerings, (2) graduation and retention rates, peer assessment, (3) faculty resources (student-teacher ratio), (4) financial resources, and (5) student selectivity. In addition to cost and convenience, students consider the types of social clubs, recreation, production facilities, dorm living, and even Greek Life to determine which schools are the best. Fortunately, the best animation school programs in Tennessee scored high in all areas from graduation and retention rates to Greek Life!
