What’re my chances in succeeding as an electrical engineering major while working full-time? I just finished my freshman year of prerequisites and am considering moving out of my parents house. Although most everything is paid for, my home life and relationship with my parents are not the best. I have saved up $4k to buy a used car and move into a friend’s house for $300/month. If I do this then I will most likely have to continue working full-time to keep up with expenses while going to college. My second option is to stay home and continue saving for three years until I graduate. I don’t know if I’d be willing to do this. Recent family issues have made me fall into a low point in my life and my parents are extremely strict towards everything I do and who I interact with. I don’t know if I could live in an environment like this for three years. I’ve seen how much of a toll majoring in engineering has had on my older peers and I just don’t want to jeopardize my future by moving out during my studies.
