# get a job, some proper experience doing it
and a 3 year headstart on all the suckers who did go to Uni and landed in debt by the end of it.

Put together an online portfolio of the sort of thing you want to be doing and send it to the sort of people you want to work for.

# This.
I didn't go to uni, but have managed plenty of people who did. Degrees don't seem to be as important as everyone makes out.

# i loved uni
it's really not a good career move, and it's a travesty that so many folk slog* their guts out there because they think it is. but if you want to spend some time learning stuff you're interested in then it's great

this is probably the wrong thread for saying so, but hey. my year out was also good (working, not fauntleroying about australia with the rich kids)

# I'll see what happens.
I think the main thing I'd be sad about is that I won't be going to my anime club any more, best part that.

On the bonus side, the people I met at the last convention want me to do a Monkey Island group cosplay with them. I think we should make a Murray.

# There maybe a loophole there.
I used to go to a university club at a university I never went to.
You'll find most clubs don't have rules about people bringing guests.
Some clubs do limit how many time one person can bring a guest along but I just went again as the guest of a different person.
