Hi, I'm going to be a junior transfer this Fall after 2 years at a CC, transferring to four-year and looking into Art / Design programs. I'm taking 10 cr. of Art History and 15 cr. of Studio Art at my CC before graduating, as well as a year of Foreign Language and Gen-Eds for most schools completed. My GPA is a 4.0 and I have plenty of ECs.
My main concern is choosing a major in the Arts that has earning potential, but is also attainable for a junior transfer. It seems most design programs are closed to transfers, and the fact that I've already completed quite a bit of the Studio Art major at most schools is a plus. However, the earning potential for this field seems very limited. I have a range of creative interests (photography, film, architecture, technology, drawing, etc.) as well as other academic interests, so it's been very hard for me to choose a major (part of the reason I'm at CC in the first place).
Sorry for rambling, but I'm hoping maybe some of you have advice for me? Is it possible to get design jobs with a Fine/Studio Art degree?
