What graduate program would you recommend?

Asked by nayeight (3353points) June 11th, 2009

So I’m graduating (finally) this fall and my plans are to (a) stay in school or (b) find a decent job. I don’t really want to find a job and my parents are willing to pay for another degree so I’m looking for schools/programs. I’m going to be graduating with a BFA in Applied Design with a concentration in Commercial Photography. My question to you is what should I try to go to graduate school? Photography or something else? Is it possible to get a Masters in something different than what you have a Bachelors in? Say I haven’t found any schools with Masters programs in photography that I like, can I pick something else and get a Bachelors in it? Like say Interior Design or something? Is that allowed/common? I’m just not really sure what the rules are for degrees and all that. I don’t want to be a teacher and I want to stay somewhere in the field of art or design. I also want to stay in the Maryland/DC/Baltimore area but if I must move I will go as far as Pennsylvannia. New York is out of the question (I know, I know. Art + New York = the way the world works). I just don’t think I could live there. I just need some guidance or where to go or what to do. Any help or suggestions are appreciated!
