As Oglu says, it does depend on the job. That being said, I've seen a lot of students struggle to get jobs because they've spread themselves too thin. I've never seen a student struggle to find work because they focused too narrowly.
Unfortunately it looks like you went to whats commonly known as a "diploma mill", a school designed to get your money while pushing you along until graduation without any care for what your actual skills are or if they're good enough to get actual work (whether you can pay or not doesn't matter in the US after all, since…
So when you say you were looking for a little crit you mean you were looking for praise. Because you got nothing but great crits and feedback from some top notch industry guys here and still you acted like a spoiled brat because you didn't "hear" what you wanted.

Touché. I haven't heard about it, but they do showcase a lot of student work on their FZD School page (which all look breathtaking btw.) I don't think they need to use the student work for that end... FZ has a very big portfolio already...
Well, some companies seem to only offer academic internship. While some other offer 'cheaper alternative to hiring' internship. The latter should not care if you're a student currently or not. ArenaNet internship, for instance, doesn't care if you're a student currently or not.
More downsizing, less hiring, more competition between vets and students (maybe not though I have seen companies hiring lots of students just for temp cheap labor.) More temporary positions, and smaller full time core teams.
No. You don't. Although I am a student. The link I posted to on Amazon is exactly the one I bought through Amazon, which I did not give any student ID for and (at the time) was about 50 cheaper than average price.
