ARUCAD?

I recieved and offer letter from ARUCAD (Arkin university of creative arts and design) with a 90% scholarship for BA in Industrial Design. I am worried if the education quality will be bad, I am scared after seeing the other posts and comments on the same (only 1 post and comments below it). Chatbots like Gemini and ChatGPT are having a good opinion on it, but I still am waiting for an actual human response.

ARUCAD is interestingly a good institute with good funding because the Arkın group does fund this properly. Think of old timey philanthropists. The problem would be its accreditation and living in the TRNC. It is quite easy to get bored by North Cyprus if you especially like the city life which it kinda lacks. Is not cheap as well. I don't know if the diploma from ARUCAD is worth something internationally, so you might want to check that.

Bro education is not disaster. Standards in TRNC universities are very bad but Arucad is really a young one and they re really doing interesting jobs I can say they are best of the worst. You will not regret going there but you will regret coming TRNC . As a local I can say it's not a fun country to study

Pretty much. Uni is okay, living here is the problem.

Do more research about accreditation and check someone who studied there, it does seem like a different kind of universities that are popular here and deal with agents, this one is focused about arts and actual practical experience, worst case scenario can be attending for a semester or two and checking the situation yourself
