I really want to major in Game Art & Design (Bachelor of Science).
The cost per credit, in the school I want to attend is $473.00 and the total amount of credits are 180 (Coming to $85,140 total).
It's expensive, and it's my passion to design games and also my dream to become a professional game designer. People have been telling me it's the perfect fit for me, but lately Ive been getting a lot of "It's not worth it", "That industry is horrible, you wont get a good job" and "You wont go anywhere with that" comments, and it's a bit disheartening to hear that from friends and even my own sister.
What do you guys think?
And is it true that I wont get a good job in that industry?
Things to note:
I SHOULD qualify for financial aid.
Im hoping to get a few grants and/or scholarships.
