ivs or habib
this is a bit complicated, but hear me out. i got into habib for computer science, attended the o week and had an amazing time. i made good friends, met amazing people and absolutely fell in love with the campus and the faculty. CS is a highly demanded degree and im confident itll pay well. ive had cs in my o and a levels but it was never my favourite subject.
now, on the other side, i applied to ivs while i had already gotten into habib. i passed the test and my interview went HORRIBLE so i had sadly given up on ivs because i was pretty sure i wouldnt get in. surprisingly, i got into ivs.. for communication design. i absolutely love art and anything to do with creating. going to art school and doing a degree in what i love is like a dream come true.
however, as i said i had lost all hope on getting into ivs, during my time at the orientation week at habib i tried my best to accept that ill be going to habib and hence fell in love with the university, which was highkey unexpected. now that ive gotten into ivs, im second guessing if i should really go there. in the time of AI, my CD degree might be at high risk. graphic designing, ui/ux; theyre all at high risk by being replaceable by AI. and i also wonder what all they can possibly teach me for FOUR years.
idk if im conveying my thoughts well, but basically the only thing that is pulling me towards ivs is that i'd rather do an art degree than a cs one. with habib, its everything else that is pulling me towards it: the campus, the university life, the faculty, socialising, the people, the opportunities etc.
i know everyone says do what u love doing and for me thats CD, but i feel like i need to be more practical and realer than that. CS is probably gonna pay me more than CD too.
also before anyone asks me why i didnt choose communication and design at habib, is because that degree at habib is more media centred, which doesnt interest me as much.
pleaseee help me out, im actually super confused and dont know what to do. habib starts in a few days and i need to pay ivs admission fee before that.
