New guy intro and a few questions.

41 year old graphic artist obsessed with cars, been sketching since I was 7. I want to switch to a career in transportation design of some kind, probably something in the aftermarket/SEMA stuff.

What is the age range for students in the transportation design programs at CCS, ACCD and other design schools? Will my previous experience be a help or hinderance (bad habits?). Is it neccessary to attend one of the top schools for what I want to do?

Are these a stupids questions that have been asked and answered before?

Domke, many people have dilema on their ages. Myself included. I just started a new thread about it.

What I learned so far is that schools don't care because they have to collect tuition. Companies do care.

Domke is the one asking whether or not hes too old for this profession. Domke I don't think age has anything to do with it. Every year the age range of students can be as low as 18 to as high as the 40-ish. I would try to contact the school directly rather than relying too much on this website.
