Hi everyone. I'm 22 years old and currently looking at attending the academy of arts in SF to work on a bachelors for illustration. The thing is, the total cost of the BA comes to about $90k.

I have an associates degree in Technical Writing and currently live in Wisconsin. I make $8/hr and work at Walmart (use to work as a customer service rep making $16/hr but got laid off last year).

I'm already, obviously, strapped for cash just to attend the school. And I may even be moreso in trouble due to the high cost of living in SF. Does anyone have some suggestions or gameplans on how I may be able to do this? I have an unskilled worker friend who would like to move to California as well, so I was thinking the two of us could rent an apartment.

I own a car which has been fully paid for. I don't mind commuting 45min/1hr tops. I'd rather walk though.

Thanks.
