Would you do it all over again?
College is expensive
, there's no doubt about that. But is it worth the cost?
A whopping 92% of college grads say yes, according to a recent survey
by the American Council on Education.
Interestingly, while those surveyed believe that their own school charged a fair price, they feel that colleges in general do not.
For my part, I think that the cost of my college education
was worth it, but my degree alone wasn't really enough to prepare me for the professional world. In my field
, practical experience is such a huge plus that I should have done more to supplement my class work with professional internships
. If I had to do it all over again, that's one thing I would have done differently to get more value out of the time and money I was spending on college.
What about you? Was the cost of your college education worth it?
