Not Going To College

Decent Essays
Are you sure the reason for not going to college is because it’s a waste of time and money or because it’s to challenging for you. Going to college is a great opportunity to succeed in life. Not saying you can’t succeed in the future without college, I’m saying it would be a lot easier than not going and trying to start a career. At least that’s what I think, I’m only 14 in high school and obviously I haven’t been college or had paying job, but I conversate with a lot of teachers and family members to know how life without college would be. College might be difficult, time consuming and a lot of money, but it’s worth it. Think about what your career choice.

    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…
