You absolutely can. In fact, there are a surprising number of "older" students in art schools in the US. Often, people go into what they thought was a practical career, work in that for a few years...but they always wanted to study art. Eventually, they quit their practical job and go to art school to pursue their dream.\n\nIn order to get into most visual communication programs, you will need a portfolio of your artwork. Most university websites list exactly what you need. \n\nAre you in the US or Canada? Art schools here sponsor events, called "Portfolio Days", where you can bring your portfolio and show it to admissions representatives from hundreds of schools, all in one day. Those reps will give you advice on what you need to do to your portfolio to allow you entry into their program. If you are outside the US and Canada, you may be able to arrange a portfolio review meeting with someone from your local art school, simply as a way to get some feedback on your work. \n\nIf you don't have a portfolio, get started on one now. If you need to, take an art class - basic drawing is best, as is life drawing. And read university websites on what sorts of work they want to see in your portfolio.

Go to the stations and ask if they're accepting interns...that'll get you started. If that doesnt work you'll want to look into going to a school that offers a communications course or degree.

Go to university and get at least one university degree. You will realize significant return to you only decades later. At that time, you would not be able return to classroom and get the education that you could have taken at your young age. Don't look at these few success stories of people without univ education, and flatly reject the idea of university education. Only those who have had higher education know how education  can change their life styles, and know when will it start paying you back. University education is not a lottery, but an investment. Its very hard to convince people of the age: high school graduates. I wonder whether you will read my comments from top to bottom. Those kids whose parents have good education background, have higher chances of getting at least first university degree. Education provides you wings to fly and see the world from sky. Imagine: "If I were a bird". University Education (but not the F rated Distance learnig or Independent Studies: current trend of purchasing a university certificate. Think of traditional university class room education) attaches wings and let you fly like a bird. Enjoy being a bird. Its your life, your choice. Bill Gate or Bill clinton, one of them said: "Intelligence is almost equally distributed, but not the opportunities." Education provides you a road-map to find opportunities.

For a degree in Sign Language Studies in south east Michigan you want to look at Oakland Community College, they offer a two year associates degree. (This is where I am going, email me if you want more info).\n\nsee:\nhttp://www.oaklandcc.edu/SLI/\n\nOr, Madonna University has an excellent 4 year bachelors degree program. (intensive program, but expensive)\n\nsee:\nhttp://www.madonna.edu/pages/signlanguagestudies.cfm\n\nFurther north, Lansing Community College and Mott College also have degree programs.

I'm 29. Started thinking about your question also about 3-4 years back. Now I realized what I really want to do for the rest of my life.\n\nTo answer your question, ANYTHING. You're only 27. It seems old, but you're not. Going back to school for any master's degree is only 2-3 years. Or if you want to change jobs, you already have (I'm guessing) 4-6 years of experience, so you've proven your work experience.\n\nWhat I've done is look into some evening classes to learn the things that I'm really interested in. Rather than completely drop my work and income, I think a transition phase will work out best for my situation.

I think I'd have to go with the previous respondent on this except you could probably get a student visa to study film (or related subject) at university assuming you met the criteria for entry and if this included a year in industry then you would get an apprenticeship of sorts but you would have to pay for the degree and probably work unpaid in your year out.

are you based in the uk?\nIf so, most universities do a very good media studies degree course.....this will give you a real in depth view into the whole of the media industry, but you can also pick individual modules in things like film/directing etc...\nim sure unis in other countries run similar sorts of courses...\ncheck on the internet for unis, then check their syllabus.

You should encourage him to get a bachelor's degree in communications, business administration, management... something along those lines. For his elective credits, have him take things that enhance his communications and planning/coordination skills. It may be of interest to contact several planning/dispatch companies and ask what kind of educational requirements they look for in applicants.\n\nSome may say none, it is personality driven... regardless, encourage him to get the 4-year degree. It will be much more valuable to him later than he may possibly imagine today.

Sure. It's never too late to have a career in TV or media at 52.  Why don't you look in the paper? At least look in the ads and see what they have to offer. If you have the experience, you're fine. But you might have to start at a entry- or lower-level position.  Some might offer training. But you might expect a lot of rejections.

You could apply for a Fulbright from the US state department to study in the US.  Studying in the Us is always good because the market is so big.
