So this is my situation (from my last thread):
I am currently an art college student- almost done with freshman year. (I am working on my finals right now 
)
So what I’m concerned about is, whether should I drop out from this school or not.
I am a pretty good student; I receive good amount of scholarship, about 60-70% of tuition (it is just for merit scholarship- I receive this by my portfolio). My grade is pretty good, and I work hard on all of my classes. I also love to draw & paint.
However, I do NOT think this school & all the courses worth tons of $$$; (even though I receive scholarship, my school is private art school, so it still costs a LOT. + all the materials & programs are super expensive) I basically work & learn by myself. I feel like education in here is just waste of money.
Also, since in high school, I’ve always wanted to study broadly. I am interested in various liberal art courses. But it is impossible in my school, because most of the courses are art-related and there are lots of limitations.
Next problem is, which is my main concern, I am not sure about my future. Usually, it is hard to find job & make money in art industry (just to make sure- I did not choose art major to make tons of money. I came here bc I like art), but it costs a lot to get education & degree in college. Which is really… ironic.
So, I want to drop out from this college and restart in community college(to earn some transfer credit; I am pretty sure none of my classes in my school will transfer) and then transfer to public school.
If I attend Community College and prepare for transfer, the major that I want to pursue is Business, not only because there is high employment rate in that field (compare to the employment rate for Art&Design industry, it is much much higher), but also Business & Marketing has always been my second choice other than Art.
So yeah, this is my current situation, and I want to hear anything from parents’ perspective. (I haven’t discussed with my parents yet…) Will you let your kid to start over? Or will you encourage your kid to just stay in current college?
