What kind of degree (major and degree level) would you ideally need to be a video game designer?
I'm currently looking into different career path choices. I have dabbled in video game design since I was about 8 years old, and I was curious as to what to pursue in college if I decide I want to continue to a professional level. #career-planning #video-game-production #college-major

How can I earn more financial aid from schools than what they give me?
