Animation Career Review, which began publishing in 2012, started its regional and national rankings as a response to the high-volume of animators and game designers seeking out top-tier schools around the globe. Every degree-granting school is considered (with the exception of two-year community colleges), and their end goal is to provide students and parents with access to the information necessary to make an informed decision about post-secondary education. The publication's criteria consists of a variety of factors including 'academic reputation', 'depth and breadth of the program faculty', 'graduation rate' and 'employment data'. 195 schools were considered for the 2021 list.

Since its inception, our School of Animation has worked with vigor and passion to ensure that we as an institution are on the cutting edge of the creative industry, not only to offer the best education possible to our students, but to continually expand upon our curriculum through our own pursuit of knowledge."-Colin Giles – Head of School of Animation, VFS
