I'm sorry I don't have any advice for you. All I know is that you should definately take advantage of your parents paying for school. I never went to college because I made a BUNCH of mistakes early on (and I just can't stop making them, even though I'm almost 30!). There are a lot of things I have always wanted to do. The main things are photography and writing. I have no time and no money for school, so what I do is just keep writing and taking pictures. Maybe someday it will pay off. I would love to be a prof. photographer, but I have 2 kids to raise and I need to make good money. So, I'm pretty much screwed for now. I did meet a prof. photographer, but I can't afford to work for free. We'll see what happens. Moral of this long story......think about going to a regular college first and then work from there. You might learn some stuff you need, no matter what profession you go into. Good luck with whatever you decide!!
