Should I go to college or start getting experience in the music industry?
Question by samexjeans: Should I go to college or start getting experience in the music industry?
So I have a decision to make.
I either do a 2 year National Diploma in Photography for two years starting in September or I don’t go to college and use my contacts from the online music magazine job I have and start off my experience in the music industry.
Advice?

C’mon, dude. However anxious you are to get started with your life now, you never know how things will go in the future. A college degree will give you somewhat of a safety net if things suddenly start going down the crapper. You might not think that you’ll ever leave the music industry, but life has a way of chucking some massive curveballs when you least expect it, and a degree (even if it’s just in photography) will keep you from ending up as a construction worker or something.
