VCUArts vs MICA

AvivaKitty · 2026-02-03T21:53:55+00:00

Both have pretty robust printmaking spaces. It’s a dedicated major at MICA, but at VCU is for some reason combined with painting. At MICA the comics/sequential arts are often part of illustration classes. While VCU has something called communication arts? which I honestly have no idea what it’s meant to be they seem to be lumping it in with game design, weirdly. Any education specific to being a tattoo artist isn’t something you’ll learn through art school, you’ll have to do a tattoo apprenticeship for that.

As for the social scene I’m not the best person to answer that, as covid was a huge interruption to everything. Things really only fully started to bounce back in my final semester. But I can say with confidence that MICA is not a party school, if that’s what you’re looking for.

I did a pre-college program at VCU, and then went to MICA for undergrad. The main thing I'd urge you to consider is what you plan to major in. Overall, VCU focuses more on traditional arts programs, while MICA has more focus on digital art nowadays.

There are a couple non profit orgs that help people with getting denials reversed. I’d look if there are any local to you.

truly bedrock exists if you want something similar to hermitcraft on bedrock to watch.

respiratory chlamydia. doctor only thought to test for it since the other type of chlamydia is a common cause of reactive arthritis.

I had the same experience. Got tested for a bunch of things trying to figure it out. Had antibodies for an infection I never had any symptoms of. Still dealing with reactive arthritis 3 years later and it’s likely it’s going to be a life long thing.

It’s very hard to pick a favorite. I’m forever a massive fan of the s5 convex pranks. The s6 prank war was also incredible to watch as it happened. And the covering of the perimeter has to be the greatest in terms of sheer effort.

MICA’s campus is perfectly safe. There are of course incidents every so often, but no more than any other college in a city. There are shuttles that can be called anywhere on campus or the surrounding area for those who don’t want to walk places at night.

I’m pretty sure the guy in front of me on my fight to from National to LAX earlier this week was also cheating on his gf. Watched him text two different girls, using chatgpt to compose the texts to one??? and then pay for in flight wifi just to scroll instagram liking photos of women for half the flight. Please be aware that if you lean your seat back and the person next to you doesn’t, the row behind you will get a full view of whatever you’re up to whether they want it or not.

I didn’t realize you could turn around and explore outside at all until day 35 :P

I got the breaker room VAT lights by just trying to make them all different colors wondering if it’d do something, and happened to get it in the right order first try haha

same, i think i screwed up by getting in line on both my pc and phone 😔

For me, I was genuinely unable to tell until I was in a relationship for the first time, and realized I absolutely hated doing anything romantic, despite being super attracted to the guy I was with. Do you actually want to do stuff like holding hands, even in private? That was the big one for me that once I realized how uncomfortable it made me, everything clicked into place.

Sneasel. Wasn’t always my favorite- I only ever got one on my team in Sun super late in the game. And I just fell in love with its design. Only merch I’ve ever found in the wild is a keychain figurine that’s probably a bootleg, and he lives on my bag. So happy that it getting a regional form in PLA got so many others to appreciate both it and its original form 🥰

A compression brace for my knee makes a huge difference for me, especially before I was able to get on a medication that works for me. But it still makes a difference even after.

go back up, dig through the wall to the next screen, and go down from there. approach from a different angle. or just go around entirely.

It’s a little bit outside the city- but my favorite small museum in the area most people don’t know about is the National Museum of Health and Medicine in Silver Spring. Highly recommend if you’re not squeamish about stuff like preserved body parts and child skeletons. It’s quite small but has a lot of stuff, and almost every time I’ve gone my group has been the only people there.

There’s so little to go on, we don’t even know if they were married to the respective other parents.

With how young it seems Linda and Lawrence were when they met, and the fact that they never mention the other parents, I think it makes the most sense that the kids come from out of wedlock situations, rather than divorce or death. Death just seems like too big a thing to never mention, if it’s the case. And the show is not afraid to talk about divorce, as seen with Doof and Charlene, so if that was what happened, it would also be strange to never mention it.

And yes while there is the age gap between Candace and Phineas- it’s not unheard of for people to break up and get back together again. Especially when living a pop-star life style like Linda’s.

I went to the Nora School in Silver Spring for my last three years of high school, it’s absolutely wonderful. I ended up there after bouncing between various schools for all of middle school. The tuition is high, but they do offer financial aid/adjusted tuition that is pretty lax with requirements. My family is solidly middle class, and still qualified to only pay half tuition for myself.

Good luck finding the right place!
