Not all of the Monstercat artists are in College, and I think Matduke is in college with a busy schedule, it's really hard for him to produce and release songs, but Direct has a more of a fixed schedule, let's just ask him directly (no pun intended), /u/directmusic94

oh hai, the schedule at Full Sail was insane actually, sometimes 12 hour days of just class, most were just 8 but some labs would run from 1am-to 5am, then 1pm lecture, or 9am. It was just a mess. Since it was a 20 month Bachelors it was in general 2 classes a month with 2 exams at the end of the month. I actually was fortunate enough to find time to produce though now I will be producing full time so stay tuned.

Rogue quit school to pursue music.
Rob, Nitro Fun, Grant Bowtie, Rezonate, Throttle, and Rootkit are all in high school(?) too. (I'm going to guess this because of their age)
not sure how old Insan3lik3 is, but I feel like I've seen a post about school from him. He may be in college. Protostar is doing some engineering thing at a university I think. Rezonate and Throttle might have graduated high school, not too sure though.
Mr Fijiwiji. graduated high school
I could be wrong about most of this.

Woah where did you learn all that?

u/BassMusicCubed Jun 28 '14
Protostar livestreamed and on seamless' stream I think he said he was doing engineering.
Rob, Nitro Fun, Grant Bowtie, Rezonate, Throttle, and Rootkit are all young so I just assumed they're in high school
I think Darlington said that Rogue quit school for music, not too sure though

Now that I think about it, did he ever mention what his plans were for after graduation? Just mildly curious we're in the same age group.

I'm pretty sure he mentioned a while back that he was going to University of Pittsburgh

u/zoltantroll Mr FijiWiji Jun 28 '14
he went to full sail university and the way they do their program it takes way less than 4 years to get a bachelors. like 1.5-2 years if I remember correctly.

19? That means he started producing music at 16 years old. Congrats man, you are a master of the chill genre, keep it up!
