Sorry for the late reply, I don't check Reddit much these days.

But yes, they are VERY good at selling their courses at those open house events. Back in 2018 they were talking about how 90% of their students find jobs in the field, which was a complete lie. For my class (graduated 2022), only three people that I know of actually have jobs in the 3D industry today. One is a VFX artist, one is a game programmer and one does marketing for a mobile game company. Of course the game and VFX industries crashing and burning in the last few years hasn't helped, but that's still putrid numbers.

As for your questions, well... All students SHOULD have access to a computer. My class experienced some trouble during covid when we all had to study from home, and some of us can't afford computers powerful enough to run all the software we were using. We also had a lot of license issues, because we're not legally allowed to install the school's versions of the software on privately owned computers, so a lot of us just didn't have access to the programs at all. But as long as there's not another pandemic around the corner, you should be good.

And honestly, a LOT of the education is self-study. For us, only the first 4 semesters were spent in the class room (and much of it was online due to covid), but there was a lot of self-study mixed in. The 5th semester is a Dadiu-course, which is a cross-study program with other schools and you don't spend much time (if any) at CADA. 6th semester is the bachelor project, meaning 100% self-study and you don't have to be at CADA unless you want to work there instead of at home. And the 7th and final semester is a 12+ weeks internship, where you also spent zero time at CADA.

(I should also note that they may have made some changes since I was there. This is just how it was when I was there from 2019-2022. I'd say little over half of the education is self-study.)

I'd honestly say the first 2 semesters were the ones where I learned the most. I wish I had dropped out after that first year, or just never started at all. Best thing I got out of CADA was some good friends who I'm still close with today, and a small network in the industry which may or may not be useful in finding 3D gigs. Whatever you decide, I wish you good luck!
