The Value of a College Degree
The benefits of a college degree are many. By attending college, you will gain an invaluable education, not to mention learn the independence and basic socialization skills needed to function in the “real world.”
But what about the economic benefits? With the cost of a college education skyrocketing, it’s only natural to wonder whether it’s financially worth it.
Recent studies point to an overwhelming “Yes.” On the whole, people who have a postsecondary degree earn substantially more over their careers than those who do not. College graduates don’t just earn substantially more than those who don’t have a higher degree, but they’re also more likely to have a job in the first place.
