Just based off this picture alone, would you take this art school seriously or not?

Show us the teachers and student's work first, this will tell much more.
Probably not worth it, I don't see anything there that can't be learned or too hard to learn on your own.

I can't, I'm too embarrassed to post it. It's really awful. Basically picture 90% of it being pretentious self-portraits.

Well, there's your answer. Pick another school or just buy yourself time for selfstudying instead of going to school at all. If you need a school purely for motivation and discipline sake, then try to find real life art friend and just fuck each other up the asses like all the artists do.

That's not why I am going. Even a crappy art school looks better on a resume than never having a college education at all. Also, I get an internship experience if I go.
But the biggest reason is that I get to apply for an H1B visa much sooner, because it shaves off effectively 4 years off the requirement. I do want to work in the US someday, that's the breadbasket of the industry I want to work in.
Other schools here are just lame as shit too, but this one is a 2 year program so there isn't a huge commitment, even monetarily.

Then go to the school. I don't see what's the problem. You probably won't learn shit, but if it's not your goal in the first place, then it's ok.

the portfolio has come to replace the degree paper. this is absolutely true in the creative fields. and this precedence will only increase as more people become aware of whats happening inside art school (liberal "ART")
someone who has studied from vilppu, houston watts, gurney almost always has more to show for it than one who spent 3 years in an art school. i observed this myself
