If you're expecting to start a career in film/tv, you have to be prepared to start at the bottom. So chuck all your expectations about salary and glamour, regardless of whether you finish your degree or not. This is what's known as "paying your dues," and unless you're incredibly lucky, or have an uncle who works in the biz, everyone has to do it. If you're looking to escape from school, this is probably not the best place to do it.
The problem with entering a competitive industry is that even the people competing for the entry-level positions are probably well-educated. Think realistically about what you are qualified to do right now, given your level of experience and education? You'd probably be better off getting some more experience and education before you try to dive into a full-time career.
