I would be so appreciative if someone here at Bungie or even a person who works at another game studio could reply to give me some tips as to good schools or programs that studios look for when hiring for positions. I am currently interested to pursue 3d modeling for either asset creation or even character design. I understand that there is a level of skill and experience one must have when applying but I am simply looking for some direction to lead me down the right path either if it's obtaining a degree from a university or attending an art institute. I have a real determination to get into the industry and looking for any sound advice. Thanks in advance for any help.

Blender is a good 3D modelling programme. It's also free, so it's at least a place to get started.
