A Look Back

* What do you know now that you wish you knew before going on this program? I loved the L.A. Program. The only thing I wasn't satisfied with were the staff. They were not helpful when it came to internships. I had a horrible internship experience and I felt like I wasn't able to switch my internship because I was afraid to "ruin" the schools reputation by switching. They made it seem like your decision should be final, but if you aren't happy, they should help you switch.
