I'll be graduating this fall with a Bachelors in Visual Arts (graphic design). Will going for a Masters in this be that beneficial or with the right portfolio I should get a good job no problem.

No! Get to work... tee-hee. Joking aside..... you'll learn more on the job than you ever will in school .. for graphics, that is (and I've been schooled to the max:). Unless your undergrad work was more theoretical than practical.. and you feel that you're not prepared... in that case a Masters won't help you anyway. The great people you'll meet on the job will show you the ropes and fill in the gaps. It's not just about talent.. but that's what gets you hired.. it's working with others and solving the problems. Work on your portfolio... edit as you gauge interview reactions.... go get your hands dirty!! You can take courses while you're working... I always did. I wish you so much good luck.. and have fun!

Sorry I don't have the answer that you're looking for, but I have a few questions. I'm a senior in high school and this will also be my third and last year in vo-tech for graphic design. I've been trying to figure out what to go to college for whether it be graphic design, interior design or commercial arts. What are the classes like for graphic design? Are there any specific things you focus on in the studies or is it just a broad overview of everything in graphic design?

It would be nice, but not nessisary. i spoke to my mentor ( who is a graphic designer) and she told me that the ting that people look at is your portfolio, not really how much schoolong you have. having a masters is nice but you dont really need it unless you truely feel you want it.

I think so. A satisfying and creative career. With all the computer assisted design tools, the sky's the limit, creativity-wise.
