nih, thank you for the great info. We have seen South Seas site. So you have heard that they have a good reputation? Do you know graduates of that school? Do you think that they would be willing to talk to my son, Andrew?

Also, thanks for the tidbit about the university's film classes. I can see how they wouldn't take it very seriously. Andrew is VERY serious about this. He is taking a 2 year technical course now in highschool, he even spent a semester in Europe interning with a well known (in Europe) director. We are actually a bit concerned that he may have already learned all of the technical stuff and really needs more theory and job searching skills than anything else. But from here (US) it is hard to tell what these schools offer.

I appreciate your advise.

Thanks to you also, Penny.
