I can either go to grad school or move to an art city and try to start getting into exhibitions. Grad school is extremely expensive in the US and school in general is getting a little boring to be honest. Right now I'm a junior in my undergrad 20 yrs old.

You were stupid enough to (probably go into crippling debt in order to) go to art school, and now you're thinking about spending even more money on a degree that will not even help you get a job at wal-mart?
Yes, absolutely, you should go to grad school. May as well go full retard.

Nah I'm on a full ride academic scholarship, I make money going to school
>>2296277
But yeah I'm guessing I won't go, school is for boring people I think.

OP, you do you, but I have to say that anytime I see someone younger than me doing something better than me it fires me up so bad. Thanks for the motivation.

what do you plan on doing with the degree? if you want to teach, absolutely get your MFA. if not, then consider cost vs. benefit. if you can get another full ride do it just for skill building, but full rides are less likely in grad school. you might can get a teaching stipend and scholarships for an in-state college though.
I think you should take a hack at the gallery scene for a while. Regardless of whether or not that venture is successful getting the chance to do something different will make you reevaluate grad school with a fresher, more informed perspective. Even thin I'd only consider grad school if you can get a stipend for it, its very expensive. Maybe consider grad school abroad?
