Hello, I am an international student and I am planning to take a game design course in Canada. Actually, I was planning to get into AI in Vancouver, but In order to get a working permit, I would better get into public college rather than private college, and it makes me difficult to decide. In this below chart, which one is the best school do you think? I will deeply appreciate for your advice. Game design & Art - Art institute of Vancouver Game design and development - centennial College Game development - Alqonquin College Game Development and Entrepreneurship - University of Ontario Institute of technology Games Design - Centennial College Games Programming Certificate of Specialization- Lethbridge Community College Video Game Design and Development-International Academy of Design & Technology - Toronto 3D Animation & Game Design Studies-New Media Campus - Regina 3D Game Animation-Centre for Arts and Technology - Kelownaa Game Art & Design Program VFS Ets.

    I live in Vancouver and I am from the US (washington state). I came into Canada to study. I know for a fact that the Art Institute of Vancouver is extremely hot because Vancouver is a hot bed for computer animation and software design (I am a computer programmer). Vancouver is known as Digital north and major companies like Disney and Microsoft hire straight out of AI of Seattle and Vancouver. The down side, to get into Canada with a permit you are going to have to prove that you can sustain yourself financially. So be prepared to save for a year or two before coming (that is what I had to do). Working in another country is difficult, even for US citizens in Canada. Be prepared to front the cash because they want people who will add to the economy, not a student who will draw on the system instead. Do realize though that the Art Instituate does have the campus in Seattle and that might be a great choice for you in the US. I use to live near Seattle and Microsoft/Disney/Hollywood loved picking students right out of AI of Seattle. Seriously consider it if you find you can't get into Canada. Good luck!
