Is college worth it? - October 22nd 2014, 11:51 PM
I'm asking this of people who've been through college/university only. I.e., if you haven't been through college, please don't answer, because I won't consider your experience relevant to my personal research.

(1) Do you consider the education you received to be worth the money you spent?

(2) Are you working in the field you initially wanted to work in?

(3) About how much debt had you accumulated by the end of your studies?

(4) Did you receive any significant scholarships after entering college?



I need information, not advice, so that I can gather my conclusions and make my own decision regarding a college education. I'd prefer if you withheld your "you should go to college, it's the best thing ever" speeches. I've had enough of that from school recruiters.
