"My advice to prospective students searching for their career path? Follow your passion. My father said I was never going to make any money in art. I said, ‘Watch me.’ If you follow your passion and love what you do, it makes it all worthwhile."

Gracie Studio
"El Centro is so centrally located, so close to the design district. There are other schools that are more remote — we’re so fortunate to be in the middle of everything here."

Margaret Chambers, RID, ASID
Owner, Chambers Interiors & Associates Inc.
"The best part of my experience was that it was all practical — everything I would need to know and do as an interior designer, not just theory. We really learned the nitty-gritty of being a professional interior designer, and after graduating I felt very ready to go out and practice the profession. I don’t think I could have done justice to my clients without going through this program."

"The professors in the program took an interest in my success and guided me towards accomplishing my goals. The relatively small classes offered an opportunity for one-on-one interaction, which was a positive factor for me."

Interior Designer II, Perkins+Will
"Choosing where to go to school took some research. I had a hard time justifying the cost of a traditional university. At El Centro, I was able to take all the core classes I needed to take the licensure exam in a few years to become a Registered Interior Designer without the high costs of a university."

"I looked at both two-year and four-year colleges, and this was the only one that had a true international business program. Other schools had a business degree with a foreign language component, but that wasn’t really what I wanted."

"The Invasive Cardiovascular Technology program is great. I was really able to use my clinical time to absorb all of the information I could. The hands-on experience combines the technical side with theory that you learn in class."
