Answer 1 :
You will be repaying those college loans for the rest of your life. Art is in the soul, why do you need someone else to inspire you? Did the great artists learn their gift in school? I would reconsider the entire thing. 10k absolute bare minimum for tuition.....5k for books and housing for one year is 15 a year. That is 60k. Now if you went to work you would earn (again bare minimum) 20k and over 4 years that is 80k. That is roughly 150,000 dollars for someone else to tell you what is in your soul and teach you to be creative? Isnt that the opposite of art? 150k at 5% is 7.5k a year in interest alone and compounded over 50 years is 1.7 million dollars. Go to a compound interest calculator and put the numbers in yourself if you do not believe me. Now that is with minimum numbers and only at 5% and assuming you do not add a penny. Nearly 2 million by the time you are 70. Unless you are going to be a doctor or engineer or in business, you are a fool to go to college...especially for "art" *still paying off college loans after 10 years and not even half way done* I posted this to another similar post....hope it gives you something to think about cause I made this mistake.
