Creativity is what drives our Visual Communications students.

It allows them to discover what motivates them, pushes them, makes their light bulb burn at full wattage. But creativity is just a tool -- a tool that lets our students transform their desire into a satisfying career and a bright future.

The Visual Communications BFA program at O'More provides you with plenty of help from instructors who are practicing, award-winning professionals in the field.

The O'More model is immersion in design instruction. From day one, you'll be taking classes in your major, rather than having to wait two years like at many other colleges and universities. And we offer more specialized design courses than other colleges in the area. We practice hands-on experience with some of the best technological tools around.

You'll learn from the best in the business, top professionals in advertising, graphic design, Web design, packaging, and corporate identity, learning the latest industry technology and the practical skills that will put you on your career path. With an average class size of eight, you'll get the individualized attention that leads to a superior level of training.

Part of Visual Communications is seeing the big picture.  

Because our instructors are working professionals, they understand that creativity alone will not get you where you want to go. They realize that creativity must be complimented by an underlying understanding of what each project aims to achieve. No matter how you dress it up, no tricks or techniques will save a misguided message. It's all about coming up with an effective concept and executing it perfectly.

The proof is in the results.  Awards are important incentives, as they act as acknowledgement from professionals and ensure that you get noticed by the right people in the business. O'More Visual Communications students have recently won local, district and national Student ADDY Awards. Last year, an O'More student won Best of Show at the local Student ADDY Awards.

Our campus is a breeding ground for creativity. The seven acres that are O'More College of Design feature historic buildings nestled between centuries-old trees. Inside, you'll find state-of-the-art design labs, and wireless T1 Internet allows you to work remotely from anywhere on campus. The place itself is inspiring, and you'll leave here prepared for a career in any facet of visual communications, including graphic design, advertising, Web site and interactive design, packaging and corporate communications.

Come see us, and learn why O'More is like no other place in the world.
