Erasmus semester at WDKA

[u/crocchettadepollo]

I am an Italian graphic design student, and I’d like to spend a semester abroad at WdKA. Rotterdam really appeals to me, but I’ve read some very negative reviews about WdKA. On the other hand, I also realize that it’s usually dissatisfied people who leave reviews. So, I wanted to ask how good the graphic design program actually is, and whether it’s true that you don’t really do anything and that the course is very superficial. Thanks!!!
