If you?ve only become discouraged and fearful by reading the ?reviews? on this site, then PLEASE read further.

I started perusing this site recently in my research for a school to finish my BFA. After graduating high school near the top of my class I went against all advice and expectations to defer attending a 4 year university right out the gate and go to work in the real world for awhile. I am thankful I did.

Why? Because it gave me perspective.

The world outside of school IS one giant bureaucracy, there ARE always bitchy and unhelpful people in offices, NO ONE cares about your emo struggles, or the fact that you decided to sell your soul to Sallie Mae at the ripe age of 18 when you probably had no concept of what you really wanted to do for the rest of your life.

The fact is, if you are being swayed by negative reviews written by a tiny population of bitter and regretful individuals, you should reconsider if your dream is really your dream. You are your own worst enemy, not some shifty financial aid office people or some random administrator.
