Ok so here are the details of the situation.
I graduated college with a 4 year degree in graphic design and I'm currently working as a designer for a small commercial printer. I make a normal paycheck nothing to get hyped about but I am absolutely misserable there and I really question doing graphic design the rest of my life. I have always wanted to be an animator ever since I was like 5 years old when I would draw disney characters. I had a lot of doubt after graduating high school of my skillset to become an animator so I chose graphic design. Well, about a year ago I found out about animationmentor.com and I was overwhelmed by this school. I wish this was available to me earlier in choosing a college. But the facts are I am in debt about $30,000 in student loans and other debt. I applied to animationmentor and was accepted. However I was planning to get the loan offered by Salie mae foundation (which is the only loan available) but was denied. I felt crushed that I couldn't attened or afford it. I really would like to attend within a year but have no savings because I'm trying to pay off my debt. What are my options to try and attend in a year? How can I make quick money? any good savings methods? or are there other loan options that I am not aware of? I am slowly trying to teach myself animation but really would like the fundamentals and skill I could get form this school. Please any info would be appreciated...PLz take this serious (no ignorant answers)
