The Art Institute of California has four campuses: the Art Institute of San Diego, the Art Institute of San Francisco, the Art Institute LA, and the art institute of Orange County. In addition, the Art Institute of California also runs the California design college. If you want to attend any courses at the art institutes, you will have to make a choice of which campus.

You may have a hard time going about that decision. Like all the institutions in the art institute system (which includes over thirty units all over the country), the Art Institute of California has standard course offerings in the media arts, design, fashion, and the culinary arts. So your decision may boil down to location, and you may prefer the campus that is nearest to home.

There are slight variations in the course offerings. For instance, there is no advertising course in the Art Institute LA. Or, that only the Art Institute of San Diego offers a Bachelor of Science degree in fashion marketing and management. But, by and large, the courses in culinary management, game art and design, graphic design, media arts and animation, and interior design are available at all campuses of the Art Institute of California institute.

To be a student in the Art Institute of California is to be part of something creative. That is rooted in the various curricula and course offerings. That is also encouraged in the different student groups whose formation and activities receive strong support from the institutions. For instance, there are student organizations for those interested in animation and comics or in PC gaming. Culinary clubs operate school restaurants open to the public. The schools encourage the formation of local chapters of national organizations that advocate an active role for the design arts in the economic, political and cultural issues of the period.
