What is the best private art school for graphic design or visual communications?


I am looking to transfer to a private art school and major in graphic design, I am looking into:
The dashes represent the "BIGGEST" focus of what the schools seemed to push the most:
Calarts (CA) -seem big on animation
School of Visual Arts (NY) -seem big on illustration
Kansas City Art Institute (MO) -seem big on sculpture
The School of the Art Institute of Chicago (IL) -big on photo
OTIS (CA) -not sure
Ringling (FL) -animation

I want a school that is a part of NASAD and is big on graphic design. I have also been told that the schools on the east coast are more traditional and ones on the east coast are more forward thinking. I combine photography and design in my work and would like to be at a school that has a similar philosophy as me. I am aware that Rhode island has a great MFA program in design, but they seem to be too traditional for me and quite a bit more in cost than these other schools. What school has the most foward thinking and biggest emphisis on graphic design?

*west are more forward thinking and east are more traditional.

Otis is pretty big on graphics to my knowledge.

It also depends on what you want your classes to be centered on aside from graphic design. There are a few schools with strong graphic arts programs that aren't necessarily art schools .However, you should additionally consider MICA and RISD.
