A film or media degree can lead to more options than just Hollywood.
After college, you could work as a video editor, production assistant, cinematographer, content creator, or social media/video specialist. In San Francisco, especially, many tech companies hire media professionals for marketing videos, product launches, and digital content.
You could also work in production companies, streaming, nonprofits, journalism, or freelance.
The most important thing: build a strong portfolio during college. Internships, short films, and editing samples will matter more than the degree itself.
