Before exploring Photography programs, it is a good idea to think about characteristics of the college you want to attend - urban v. rural, large v. small, near to or far from home, etc. Once those have been decided, you can look through schools with good photography programs at http://www.findyourartschool.com/programs/photography/ and narrow your options.

In Orlando for example I took a wildlife photo course at Crealde School of Art http://www.crealde.org/Department%20Homepages/Photography/photo.html.==That is just one scource if you want to get a degree community colleges have classes as well.==Good Luck=
