Dedicate yourself to school and don't see your family much. That will be good practice for a career with no life doing that. I think it would be fun to do casually but by as a career. If you love it though then go for it.

i really, really wouldnt advise anyone with the commitments he has to spending an arse load of money on a fairly worthless degree from a for profit school. that isnt an IT degree, its an art degree. job pickings will be very slim.

True that.

The second friend I mentioned dropped out of the engineering program at Auburn, where he a had a full free ride, to pursue his "passion". If you're ever in Birmingham and you're at The Summit shopping, be sure to eat at the Tavern at the Summit. Ask for Chad to be your waiter. He's a good guy.

I would love that kind of degree simply for a new hobby. I wouldn't want to pay that much for it, though. Getting a job in the industry seems enormously competitive, and the reality of the job seems more tedious than fun. I can imagine the opportunities for advancement are low, and the pay increases are few and far between since the games still have to sell at industry standard prices or lower.
