“I live in a rural community which is about 200 miles (roundtrip) to the nearest city. Recently, I decided I wanted to get my degree in Interior Design, but I wasn't willing to drive that distance every day. With the price of gas as high as it is, The Art Institute of Pittsburgh Online Division has allowed me to start something I have dreamt about for awhile. The Art Institute of Pittsburgh Online Division is a great alternative to driving to school everyday.” Catherine "Alex" Green - Student
