It's too big shit to answer with one post. But here fucking goes.

>degree
>don't have to go to school
you won't get a job from a paper, your skills are the only thing worth. school is good because social interaction is necessary for development and it provides you with a good environment.

school diplomas help once you get higher positions and go abroad. personally I've been held up by such.

>american costs
your schools are all companies. that goes for feng's little camp to. look at student graduates, not at teachers resumés.

>chances for work
look at students graduating. I took two years traditional art, two years digital.

90% of the traditional students are shit and will never work with art. one close friend became a tatto artist, famous and now tattoos music artists and is regular on tv shows. another paints oil paintings, has exhibitions all over europe and is frequently posted here.

90% of the digital course graduates got jobs. half of us in shitty low tier marketing or vfx jobs. half of us in higher positions making twice the average salary in our country.

>said this
you might want to listen less to the advice from the highest tier of artists, unless you yourself is part of it. no matter how much everyone on /ic/ practices few or any will hit craig mullins tier of painting.

that doesn't mean it's a useless career choice

>fine art in university
no
