Up to this point you have made your decision, you can see the control your parents and dubs will have on you if you choose to stay at home and go to a art institute.
Am I making the right decision?

Top 5%? ?. Hell you can go anywhere you want!, Student loans, grants, scholarships, make it possible for those who have the drive and knowledge to take advantage,
Military service? Why would you want to become a target ? war is nasty?..there are smarter ways to gain an education?.
Celebrate your 18 th birthday??knock your lights out ! ?then go celebrate X-mas, Valantines day, Easter bunny, 4 th of july, Labor day, Juneteenth, Thanksgiving, and especially celebrate everytime you get some! It never hurt anyone to celebrate !
Cheers....

Seeking Knowledge
Sounds like you are getting wonderful advice here. You know what you want to do, go for it! You have the grades & the ability, you are young and you have a great future ahead of you. Call the University & ask them about grants, talk to your counselor. No reason you shouldn't be able to get what you want out of your life. Good Luck!

If you want to serve your country, then join the military. It is a noble thing if you are doing it for patriotic reasons. If you are just joining for the education benefits, don't. With the military at war you probably wouldn't get to use those benefits, and hitches last much longer now due to stop-loss.
The better thing to do is apply for scholarships and grants. Your school counselor can help you with this, and with your grades, you should be able to get something.
Good luck!

If you can swing getting into a school and away from home, go for it. It is hard for a young person to break out on thier own. If you do decide to go Navy, PM me. I have been in almost 10 years and haven't been shot at yet. I just got back from the coast of Iraq and the job we where doing was considered risky. As long as you don't get into the spec war area of the Navy it isn't like the guys and gals of the Army and Marines getting shot at everyday.
