Hey /gd/ can you help me on my decision here?
I wanna study animation and digital art, I have a big passion for it. However there are no colleges with that career near me, but there plenty of schools teaching graphic design.
How similar are these two? Should I study graphic design even though I just wanna be an animator and illustrator?
Go for animation, it may be harder for a job but it definitely will fit you better

Animation is not graphic design, and graphic design is not animation.
If you want to do one or the other, I suggest sticking to that.
Graphic design would involve stuff like logo design, package design, advertising, print design, etc.
Animation heavily depends on illustration and animation (of course).

Combine both and you got After Effects.
