3 Things Full Sail Wont Tell You 

Just depends on the student and the program you’re in. I would say both my BS and MS I did no more then 20 hours a week max

Definitely depends on your skill set when you enter the program. I've spent t as little as 90min to 40hrs in a week. I'm in the DCBP. Just finished my first year.

@@VINdustry I had no game Design skills when I entered. I still have a ton to learn.

Thank you!! What are you going for

Same? I start monday 😊

What are you going for?

@@LaneVision music production ☺️

@@LaneVision i just Graduated this month with a bachelor's degree in music business!!!!

Appreciate it

Yeah the tuition is not cheap and will put you in debt but for me it comes down to do I believe in my self do I believe I’ll make something out of it and I’ll always bet on my self and success has happened.

Are you a online student or in person student?

@@LaneVision in person

@@nygrasshopper9171 in person may be different since you have to be in class. I was an online student and worked a full time job no problem

@@LaneVision makes sense. I’m not an online learner. Tried but sucked at it. Everyone’s different. Congrats on graduating!

@@LaneVision I was told by Full Sail that a majority of their online students do indeed work full time. Were they really flexible enough for you to multitask without crushing pressure?

Hope it all goes well

How's the experience so far? Positive or negative?

Get it don’t let nothing hold you back

Great man glad you like the videos, let me know if you end up going

Thank you

Best of luck to you and your career

I just got accepted into the music production program from Full Sail University! I'm so excited for the next step in my career!

@@atouchofclass07 congratulations I hope we can link up and make good music one day. In the meantime I hope you have a good journey in the music production program.

@@melaningoddess3546 Yes, that would awesome! Best of luck with your career!

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Yo we're gonna be graduating the same year! And to answer your questions, That is the highest maximum specs they offer for that brand of computer.

Do a video on the computer

How’s the computer

@@LaneVision it's pretty nice! I have upgraded to 32gb ram and have a 240hz BenQ monitor hooked to it and it still wants to produce higher frame rate on high res. There's some graphical scenarios of course that drop it here and there but it's unoticeable

Dope

How are you doing?

What’s holding you back?

I graduate in December and I’m thinking about the same thing

you should

Dope congrats

I've been considering doing this as a backup plan (it would be my second bachelor's degree). I was wondering if you were able to get any scholarships for this online program, or did you have to take out a bunch of loans?

@@Scriabinfan593 my credits bad so I couldn’t get much loans but I got some good scholarships

@@Scriabinfan593 I already have my first year paid off

Do it don’t let nothing hold you back let me know if you have any questions along the way

Thank you so much 😊

Appreciate it I’m using the Rode NTG3

What questions do you have?

I honestly don’t think that it was that intense but it can be for certain classes. But just don’t slack off stay focused and even when you wanna relax don’t get after it and you will be fine

21 isn't too old, as people get all kinds of degrees well off into the later stages of life as well, you can earn a degree or certificate during any stage of your life. Full Sail isn't regionally Accredited so if you plan to get a Masters in a related degree plan outside of them the transfer of credits may be a problem. The Credit hours cost is $533 dollars or $64,000 total if money or wanting a masters isn't a problem then check with students about how it was. If money is a problem and you want to go to a regionally acreddited school for a cheaper price then look around, also you can knock off most of your Gen Ed requirements on either Sophia/Slayor a community College which could save you a lot of money, for example SNHU is at $399 dollars for out of state tuition and for the 42 Gen Ed Credit hours it would cost you $16758 dollars rather than a few thousand at your community College or online at Sophia/Slayor (Sophia offers a free month trial and you can take 2 courses at a time and then it's a $99 a month and etc, I think Slayor follows a $5 proctured exam fee instead, so you can complete a few a month at Sophia or as much as you want before the free trial to decide if that's how you want to do it. An example at SNHU for every 30 credits it'll cost $9,600 and Major Credits for creative writing and English with a concentration or major is 48 credits or so, and you will have 30 free electives to explore other areas or put towards something to compliment your degree maybe even towards a masters if it works like that or a smaller number of free electives at other schools. But if you get your GenEd credits out of the way then mostly any school will be around 2-3 years for a bachelor's degree depending on what and how many credits transfer and if you'll need to take credits towards your degree. Hope this will help you out.

@@patricklagrone3393 Hi Patrick! What you just told me was really helpful. The biggest problem I'm facing right now is indeed the money problem. Thank you so much. I haven't considered credit transfer before, it's a topic completely new to me. Do you think it would be possible for us to get in contact outside of RU-vid so I could ask a couple more questions regarding the matter? At this point I could really use any help.

@@user-cp6oj4vo9n you're welcome and I'm glad it helped, yeah the credit transfer will help you cut down the cost a lot. What I told you is pretty much all I know about college other than you should apply for FASFA/ Pell Grant / Scholarships (local/private/etc) to help cut down the loan amount or eliminate the cost of your degree which I think I left out. The Fafsa I believe award between $500-$7000 a year and scholarships you will have to apply for which vary in amount, I think you can apply for different ones and some require you to maintain your GPA above a certain point, I think you can apply both before and during school for additional or current scholarships but I'm not 100% certain. I do know a lot of them are like a lottery system and some require you to be taking certain degrees and etc so you'd have to Google more about it or get in touch with a federal aid employer and they can help further explain all your tuition aid options. Another thing to touch on would be to pay attention to the cost of in-state and out of state tuition costs and decide how much difference is okay as some just vary between $2,000-$5,000 while others can vary above that well into the $10,000-$20,000 and some the same price and it also applies to the credit hours cost being instate out of state if you break it down that way. They have full-ride scholarships but idk how often they give those out along with a Dell $20,000 Scholarship (meant to be used over the course of your degree for fees and supplies), multiple laptop scholarships, which supply laptops for future or current students. Hope this further helps.

@@patricklagrone3393 Thank you so much. It did help a lot. I will definitely take a second look at the scholarships. I also did notice while looking through the universities how much the in-state and out-of-state tuition differs, sometimes it's almost ridiculous. By any chance, do you also know other colleges similar to Sophia that would offer cheap online courses purely for the credit transfer later on ?

When i tell u, we are in the same situation😂 ik u want to live ur life while ur young, but im turning 21 in a month and im working on my driver's license. Zoom out. Compared to the grand scheme of life, were babies. I dont think were too old for 4 years.(it may sound tedious, but if we dont have kids, why not?) I watched this other video by Millions Henry called "why you shouldn't go to Full Sail" (which was for people who want the traditional college life. He was saying Full Sail wasnt for that. Its for networking and growth and real learning) I'm nervous about starting a journey w Full Sail, but ik i want the pro skill set for the creative jobs i want💛✨

I would reach out to the school

Same!! We getting out launch boxes next week too.

nice, hows it going?

I start on the 31st for IT and my computer JUST broke . I’m Panicking to be honest . Hope my iPhone 11 will do until the iPad comes .

I'll be starting soon in Aug also is the start good for IT/Cyber security?

its included in financial aid/student loan

Yeah it’s included in your tuition cost

I will say for me I did maybe 1-3 hours every day I tried to squeeze in a little time every day but that was me. Do what you have to and get it done if you really want something you will make the time I did this with a full time job kids and everything else going on in life. Don’t let it hold you back

Nice

Yeah you might have to hit up a library or something

I never took this program can’t speak on it

did you get the M1?

@@SlickIndiana From what I am hearing from people who got a launch box in January that they are still sending out 2019 Macbook pros so would mean no M1. They may stitch to early 2021 models probably middle of 2022 so they will start coming with the first M1 chip. My guess is that with some software still not being 100% M1 compatible Full Sail is waiting to make that switch.

@@LaneVision I got the Mac ipro gen 9 iPad. I was hoping for more schematics. But that’s cool it does what I need for now. I waiting on my cpu. It should be in some time this month.

@Lane Vision and I’m taking up web dev. So my cpu better be top notch lol 😆 I already have jobs lined up and we need the best FullSail can offer. Even though I know they were favoring the cinematography and game developers. I was hoping they would put us web devs on top too as the third favorite child 🤣

Ok

will do

Internship pay depends on where I get a offer from most are unpaid

Dope wish you best of luck

My pleasure

Full Sail is not big on test or traditional homework. So through out your time at full sail your homework assignments are projects that can relate to real world work projects. You will complete them then again through out your time you will take 4 portfolio classes where you will take those projects you did and they will help you turn them into a graduation portfolio that you can use to show companies or whoever your work experience

@@LaneVision oh my gosh that sounds incredible! I'm still in highschool I graduate later this year, full sail came to my school and put on a show! I'm definitely a fan of the non traditional schooling! Did you enjoy full sail? And had it benefited you?

@@couchpotato2160 I did enjoy my time there I got my Bachelors and Masters there. It did help and I was able to provide the things I learned to get some promotions but I didn’t really end up in the career paths of my degrees. Part of that I feel full Sail is a young persons game because most of those fields require 6 months to a year of internship with little to no pay after graduation. Being that I was much older already having a family and the bread winner it was very hard for me to try and do that so in that situation it didn’t work out but like I said I was still able to get some promotions at the job I was already at

@@LaneVision Thank you for the information, I'm sorry you couldn't end up in the degree paths it sucks that internships don't really pay like at all.

I did

I'm really thinking about it. I dont have a computer and I work part time as it is and I don't make much and they provide it all I need to get is a desk.

Dope

I don’t know what that means

@LaneVision at Full sail university they give you a macbook pro that payed by your tuition! They refuse to give me mine because I should of reported it missing within 30 days!

@darrc3571 why would you wait over 30 days to report it missing

You must not know that there are so many more specs that comes with a computer M3 is pretty standard now for a MacBook Pro what about everything else

so what your saying is if you go to a "real" University or College you are guaranteed a job?

@@LaneVision nah he might be talking about full sail not being a credited college

@@tvoe3223 full sail is accredited though

🙄 this is why when I was going to several different colleges in my 20s I was taught to search those jobs out before you leave out of college. I have four I can take on right now only if I was skilled enough in the career I am taking on. I also went on the U.S. Department of labor to see if theirs a paying job market for my field and there is. So please do not listen to this guy who says you will be out of a job. Go to the U.S department of labor and look 👀 at the demand for your field of study that will let you know for sure.

@@dequanpage3029 it definitely is accredited and idk why people keep saying that. It may not be regionally accredited but it's still recognized and no matter what college that is it all depends on ur situation if you're even going to graduate school after and all college that are regional always don't accept regional
