Emma,
While I lack the costuming career myself, I can say this from
experience: school. Sooner, not later. You lose traction. You forget
stuff, or get involved in a goes-nowhere job. Make sure you have a
good school.
I made the mistake of continuing at my local univ. for a masters in
history. The school was more than ready to take my money, but less
than helpful about the degree's real worth (which was about nil,
unless I wanted to teach). And I had NO idea at all that I might have
jumped into a PhD program and skipped the MA entirely. My school
would rather have had my money for the MA program, than lose me to
another school's PhD program, which my school didn't even offer.
In retrospect, my then-current school's counseling was bunk.
