Anyone screwed over with student loans?

Im taking a loan out for approx 50k for art school in january (3
animation). This covers tuition and living expenses for the 1 yea
intensive course. Its a really good school apparently - but im stil
nervous about the year ending, being 25 years old, jobless and my lif
being screwed from debt.

Everyone is encouraging me saying its an investment in my future, bu
im still nervous about it.
Anyone had any experiences, or words of wisdom

Anoxopesype,

You will also be investing a year of your life. The decision should be
based on your assessment of the value to you of the money and the time.
Have you determined that persons who graduate from that school have been
rapidly employed at reasonable salaries? Have you determined that this can
be expected to comtinue? If this school provides the correct credential in
the eyes of employers, what do the employers expect your grades or test
scores or class rank to be to consider you? In short, talk to potential
employers before you start to see if completing the school makes a critical
difference to them.

Good Luck, Dave
