TL : DR for the most part, did try to skim most as I can.
If anything, I would take that with a grain of salt. VFS is what you make it too be. Like any school, there will people that will shine and some people that don’t.
I’ve meet alot of people in the industry that come from VFS so they’re doing something right. Most of my class did find jobs, and those are the ones who were truly dedicated to the craft got them first.
Sure the tuition price maybe a crime, but there are always risks. If I would do it again I would probably do it again if it weren’t for Think Tank (for modelling at least, and Think tank just started out when I attended VFS)
As for the copyright, it’s not like your going to use your student work to make money? that seems laughable, and your probably not going to reuse down the road after your in the industry. And you can still use your own reel as much as you want.
One thing I can agree on is, it is risky. Your class success depends on classmates working well w/ each other, and who is mentoring at the time. Sure you can get the same dribble learning the basics. But having good mentors and industry experienced teachers point you in the right direction and to pump out a polished reel. Somthing you can’t do at home self teaching, is having peer’s critique your work on a daily basis.
