Well I'm not 100% financially independent yet since my parents are still supporting me, but I do pay for things using money that I have either saved up or earned from working when I'm not in school. I also try to manage my spending as much as possible, and other than materials for school and food, whether it be groceries or eating out, I don't spend much on other things.
Well since I'm a student at Parsons, my opinions are going to be a little biased, but regardless of that, Parsons is one of the best institutions for visual arts. Of course it depends of what your intended major is (i.e. Parsons is known for their fashion program whereas other schools are known for other studies) and I recommend you choose a school that will support your personal studies and style of art. Speaking specifically for the fashion program, I do feel that Parsons allows for more flexibility in their curriculum and there is a lot more room for experimentation and exploration of other art mediums compared to fashion programs at other schools. Of course this doesn't mean that Parsons doesn't have high standards for their students, but based off my experience so far, I do feel that Parsons values concept and creativity over technical skills, especially for incoming students/underclassmen. It all comes down to what you want from your education and finding a program that will fit your academic wants and needs. I hope this was somewhat helpful, and please feel free to reach out if you ever have any other questions!!
