Hi, I'm a student from México, and my dream is to study animation (I mainly like 3d) I'm currently studying animation in a great school in México but I think it's not that good at teaching animation. There are 2 other schools I`ve been looking at that are smaller but the plan of studies looks really good (very similar to the ones in seneca or vancouver) and I think the teachers know their stuff. I'll attach images of the plans of study and I would really appreciate if someone could give me advice of the best decision I could make.
Here are the links (they are in spanish, but the words are similar to english):

If I were you I would order some books on how to Use Autodesk's Maya and 3D max (industry standard for 3D and 2D animation). http://www.amazon.com/Introducing-Autodesk-Official-Training-Guides/dp/1118130561/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1355875199&sr=1-1&keywords=autodesk+maya
