School is for getting a job. Do you think you'll get a job from this?
If you are passionate and want to learn something you don't need school. Schools/Teachers just use books that someone else wrote and go through the chapters and lessons and then test you to "prove" you have the knowledge to prospective employers. The books are available to those not in school. Sure you wont have a teacher to answer your questions and you wont have a rigid structure that your are forced to follow or fail. Some people need that but then I guess it may be something that you are not actually that interested in if you don't want to do it on your own.
If you want to learn music production, Live, or anything else, buy some books and sit down and work on it every day. You'll learn it just the same and you wont have huge bill and no pay increase afterwards to foot the bill. Don't forget you have this forum and endless information online if you get stuck.
To sum it up, don't pay a whole bunch of money for something that will return very little to none.
If your passionate about something you don't need school to learn it.
You need school to prove to people you have the skills to get a job.
In music nobody will look at what school you went to, they will listen to your work and if that's really good then that's all that matters.
If you have the money and you need that kind of structure well maybe it's for you, but it's not the best/only way to do it.
