In college, students are expected to be responsible and to keep up with their work/due dates of assignments. If one feels as though they are not responsible enough to be on their own and go off to college, then yes of course college would not be worth the cost. They would be wasting money especially if they are receiving financial aid, that money could go to some other student whom is more dedicate to being responsible and getting their work done. Although, there is an alternative to someone who wants to go to college and get an education but does not want to pay the high costs that big colleges and universities charge, community college. Many people have their own opinion towards whether college may or may not be worth the costs.…
Zig Ziglar once said, “There is no elevator to success. You have to take the stairs.” College is very expensive nowadays and is harder to pay for than it was back then. College is a very hard thing to accomplish and a hard decision for individuals and their families. Even though college is worth going to, students still have to pay for college tuition, a place to live, and transportation which is all too expensive for them.…
Some assume an education and a degree are the only things they will get out of the college experience. Some might think going to college will change them into a different person. Life in general brings many new adventures that in the beginning seem scary, but if one is willing to adapt to become someone new that uncharted territory will one day become not so foreign. Over all, someone…
Many of the reasons that come into play with this decision is money, time, and careers. Most of the time college attendees are unemployed or in a low paying job which makes it difficult for them to pay off what’s needed for their courses along with adding to their debt. Also, when done with school many students don’t even go into the career types that they majored for. These points of course cause people to stray away from the idea of tackling a higher education. They begin to think what is the point of doing what they do if it doesn’t get them where they want to…

There are many reasons why state colleges should be free to attend. I researched both sides of why state colleges should be free to attend and I would want to go to college that I don't have to pay for. For one reason,People who can’t afford it could miss out on a good education or a better life. Also, Graduates have heavy dept for school, they will not be able to not buying houses or not able to go on vacations. Finally, society could be missing someone who could come up with a cure illness and other inventions.…
College definitely has its pros and cons. In the past, students who attended college did better than those who did not and this still appears to be the case. Although, companies like Apple were founded by individuals who drop out of college. Some people may have a pessimistic view about it and think that college is a waste of money.…
There has been a debate on whether College is still worth the cost. There are arguments that there are jobs that don't require degree and that wages after going down and there are opportunities that don't require college. I believe that furthering your education is more worth it in the long run because you make more money and people who finish college consider it an investment, Also a liberal arts degree is well rounded and will suit many career paths if you are unsure what you want to do. The first reason I support furthering education is people who finish college make more money. David Leonhardt wrote” Even for Cashiers, College Pays Off” and in this article he wrote “three decades ago, full-time workers with a bachelor’s degree made 40…

For someone deciding wether or not to go college, all the different sides shown can make it a difficult decision. Maybe you feel like college will heighten your chance of being successful in the future, or maybe you feel like college just isn't for you. Personally, I chose to attend college so that I would have better chances in the field I would like to work with in the future.

Now on the surface this may seem like a step backwards as to why people don’t want to go to college, but it’s a reason in and of itself. Some people have a path in life they want to go down, and college may not lead them any farther or closer to their goal so they decide not to go as they find no use for it at the moment. I myself am very capable of going to college, yet the way my career works doesn’t require that I go to a college, only that I provide for myself and my family with enough time in my day to pursue my passion as an artist. Not every reason for not going to college is purely logical or explainable. Sometimes it’s as simple as, “I’m not going to college because I just don’t want to go to…
Everyone should not be forced to attend college because it is expensive for some students and they might be neither motivated nor interested in it. Do something that is affordable and also interests and motivates you to do. Do not do something because you are told you or you are supposed to; do something that excites you. Every person is unique. If a college type career does not present your happiness, then find a career that does because “higher education is not the key to happiness and success for every person.”…
I have read articles about those who choose not to attend college and for the majority, their reason for doing so is usually because of lack of funding, the need to support the household, the want to pursue a passion, or perhaps a combination of those mentioned. Some also find colleges lacking in fundamental principles. This is because “more fundamentally, now as ever, somebody has to actually do things: fix our cars, unclog our toilets, build our houses” (Source A). While it is true that there is a need for manual trades, one shouldn’t forgo the idea of college just because of this. Higher education does still provide a hands-on learning approach through many opportunities through study abroad programs and…
