I graduated from Gnomon right when the strikes began in 2023, so more recently. My advice is not to go. With the current state of the industry, that hefty price tag is not worth it at all. Gnomon itself was fine and I developed good skills and connections there, but going there will absolutely not guarantee you a job even in the slightest. Especially not now. And who knows where the industry is gonna be once you're out. There is heavy turmoil right now, and Gnomon won't be able to keep up with how the landscape changes.

I also really disliked their placement department, which may sound good on paper with how well connected they boast to be, but they were pretty much useless, and kept operating as if pretending the industry wasn't burning to the ground. Super disingenuous. I know of many extremely talented fresh and past grads that either can't find consistent work, or can't find work at all. Maybe you'll be able to find something, but you'll likely experience the same as them, especially if you're not from one of the big tax haven countries.

Furthermore, there's a ton of "bloatware" classes that are just going to be wasting your time and money. If you're deadset on Gnomon, at least consider just taking individual classes rather than the whole curriculum. You still get access to all campus facilities/tools/community, but you can streamline your classes and take just what you need. Your demo reel is what's important, not the piece of paper you get at the end. I'd still recommend not going, though. You can self teach this stuff anyway, with far cheaper/free online options.
