So I'll be cut and dry with this.
I'm 24 and finally going to college. I want to make a career in game development. My real passion is the art side, ex.. modeler, animator, designer, etc.. however my local university has no specific degree related to this. But they do have computer science. I do have a liking for coding and I think it'd have a good fall back just in case. But, am I wasting my time? Would a game studio even consider me for a graphic artist position with a cs degree? I have an extensive art portfolio to show to them, just wouldn't have a degree in it.
