If I lived in your area i would check out C.W. Post University in Long Island and Purchase College State University in NY. They are both great schools for visual arts/graphic design and computer science. My friend went to both of those schools and loved them. Purchase is more liberal arts oriented but it is on the small side, if that is what you are into. They call it "a city within the country." C.W. Post has a bit larger campus but it isnt as artsy.
I'd also remind you to think about why you want to go into grapic design. It is nothing like web design or anything in that field and wont really benefit you in that type of career. If you dont mind learning how to draw a straight line for 2 years than go for it. I just know that there arent many jobs available for a "graphic designer," and they all seem to be miserable people.
