Not only have I been looking for a job, but also a school to go to. Now that I’ve graduated from Winter Park Tech, I’m ready to pursue my real career goal. I’m very interested in the film industry right now and am striving to do all I can in order to come out on top in this field.

My GPA (Grade Point Average) in high school was extremely low and I feel that if I were to apply for a four year university (NYU), then they wouldn’t really choose me to become a student there. So my thoughts and decision is to raise y GPA by taking a couple of classes in a community college. Here in Orlando there is a CC called Valencia, that has a couple of branches around Central Florida and is known to be a top school. There is also another extremely well known school here in Orlando called Full Sail. Both schools have a lot to offer, but at the moment I’m leaning more toward Full Sail. Full Sail is basically a cram school and the longest you can be there is two years. The best part, you can earn a bachelors degree in just these two years!

Their film department is a bachelors degree program. So I’m really interested in that.

At first, I was really interested in Valencia because a lot of my friends go there and said it was great school and environment. Also, like I said above, I need to raise my GPA. I’m really hoping that Full Sail can offer this (which it should) but then again the tech school I went to didn’t…so you never know unless you ask.

I’m going to be going to both schools for an open house and see how they are for myself. I hope my experience while there will be worth wile and that the best school shines brightly, so that my decision can be easier.
