Concordia vs McGill?

I’m from LA. I’m debating whether I should go to McGill or Concordia. I know those are the top 2 school in Montreal. Which school has a better art department. In Photography and Music Engineering. Just art in general.

I know McGill has a much bigger reputation than Concordia in general, but it has not fine arts faculty at all. It has a great music faculty, but for Photography, Concordia is your best bet, especially if you are most interested in a strong artistic orientation. The faculty include Geneviève Cadieux, Evergon, Raymonde April and other award-winning photographers. It is not an easy program to get into, though! I hope you have a great portfolio.

As to music engineering, Concordia does not offer the official Tonmeister program as does McGill (although only at the master’s level), but the electroacoustics major has good recording courses and is concerned completely with learning about manipulating sound.

Check out both programs and get in touch if you’d like. Photography is in Studio Arts, and Electroacoustics in Music. http://studioarts.concordia.ca and http://music.concordia.ca

I know I’m biased in favour of Concordia because I work there, but I do not hesitate to recommend McGill in areas where they are stronger than we are. Visual arts is not one of them, and I wish you luck in your decision. Come visit, ok?
