Just go to the school, sit in on the classes and hope they don't realize that you're not supposed to be there. That shits free and you don't have to worry about turning homework in.

yes, because clearly this is an idea that does not deserve to be mocked

plus, i already tried to give this chick some education advice

but nooooooo

this is essentially a HAY GUYZ I'M SERIOUS ABOUT PHOTOGRAPHY attn thread

when in reality, whatever program she winds up at she's going to say is filled with trolls who don't get why she vignettes every assignment and takes photos of crooked ducks

how bout you read the fucking thread where everyone basically tells you this is the worst idea you've ever had

but hey, why don't you go to your fancy baptist photography school that nobody has ever heard of so the degree won't be worth shit outside one field

the average worker in our generation switches job fields 5 times

you think you're going to be the one that bucks the trend?

"Ya man, it's like wtf r u srs?

Why the hell does a school have to be that freaking expensive??"

economy of scale

i get out of this that you don't understand why colleges cost different amounts

Quote :
"They just updated their entire photography department. It sounds sweet but at that price tag I'm really having a hard time justifying it.

Problem is I'm not impressed with anything else in the region thus far."

have you done any research outside the school's website, wikipedia, and tww?
find out why they made the changes, find out if the department is personnel focused or institutional focused (i.e., if one person leaves the program in the next 5 years, is it going to whither and die, or will the institution put the resources in to find a replacement)

i also get out of this that you're willing to think about spending a shit ton of money but not willing to think about commuting a long distance or moving to follow your "dream"


Quote :
"They have internship programs through National Geographic and etc and really the school is apparent shit except for their arts, equestrian, and culinary programs."


do they have internship programs or do they have students who have done internships at these programs? if its the former - what percentage of the students are guaranteed such premium placements? if the latter, can't you get into one of these internships at another more cost efficient school?

now please, remind me again what nuggets of wisdom i would be understanding if i read the thread?

you are the personification of what people are talking about when people complain about females being unable to take criticism

if you can't handle the way the DSLR thread heads shit on your work, what are you going to do when an assignment editor rips your shit apart or a client refuses to pay for your "work"?

where the fuck did anyone say it was a life long idea?

there you go - as soon as someone points out your flaws you immediately run to hyperbole

and you've talked about this for two days now in two different threads

to me thats more than an "idea for a second"

and shit, looking back at the DSLR thread you were already asking for advice on which camera to buy for the INTERMONT program

"idea for a second" my ass

and again

you're willing to think about spending this much money but not willing to think about traveling for school?

You know, just to clarify for everyone. Asking "What would you do" questions is really asking their opinion or advice.

Seriously, with what you "know" right now and your potential in photography, I'd honestly say for you to look into a different career path. Accounting is boring, but it pays very well. Do that, then keep photography just as a hobby, but still be able to pay the bills. That's my advice.

What I'm saying is that Photography is one of the most competitive fields to get into if you are looking to do it as a career choice. 30 million DSLR's were sold in North America alone last year. What do you think you can offer in the world of photography? Just make sure you have the means, motivation, aspiration and enthusiasm to do it otherwise find something else as your bread & butter maker and keep photography as a hobby.
