FYI, architects do not have very many employment opportunities either. Contrary to Carlos' post, architects are not in great demand. There are so many architects and architecture majors that it's become quite competitive if you want to make it in that field. On a list of 25 college majors with the highest unemployment rates, Architecture ranks at #6, so I wouldn't be so Pollyanna about it. I, too, originally wanted to be an architecture major but then I realized the facts about the industry and that it actually really sucks because it's not as creative and designer-friendly as you might think (AutoCAD is a very unpleasant program in my opinion, and Revit is not much better). I would definitely recommend steering clear of this field, especially because you mention that you are hesitant to go into it in the first place in favor of animation. Neither are good ideas, in my opinion, if you are concerned primarily about employment. That said though, you should do what you want, and if you're very, very passionate about either of those, then shoot for it. It's totally your choice. Maybe you'll be very successful, too. I'm just providing you with a much needed caveat.
