When Driver was eighteen, he attempted to start his acting career in Los Angeles, leaving Indiana by car and breaking down in Amarillo, Texas.

Subsequently, Driver attended the University of Indianapolis for a year before auditioning again for Juilliard, this time succeeding. He got the news he was accepted while at work at the Target Distribution Center in Indianapolis. Driver has said that his classmates saw him as an intimidating and volatile figure, and he struggled to fit into a lifestyle so different from the Marines. He was a member of the Drama Division's Group 38 from 2005 to 2009, where he met his future wife, Joanne Tucker. He graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in 2009.{{cite web |title=Adam Driver |url=http://www.juilliard.edu/journal/author/adam-driver |website=The Juilliard School |access-date=April 17, 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150418000728/http://www.juilliard.edu/journal/author/adam-driver |archive-date=April 18, 2015 |url-status=live}}
