Without knowing where you are and what the economic conditions are in your location, there is no way to be able to give you a meaningful answer. I would suggest discussing this with one or more of the instructors, specifically Pasan or Dan Gorgone. I'm always in favor of more education. I'm also in favor of being able to make a living, hopefully a good one, and not a barely eking it out one. You know yourself and your capabilities best. Research your options as thoroughly as you can, and I'm sure you'll find the right answer. Good luck!

I agree with Kathryn, we don't know your specific situation. It also depends if your startup idea relates to your post graduation education or not. For example I have an idea for a business, my education does not relate much with it, but I do not live in the city were my business will be successful and I cannot afford to move within the next few years.
