The Benefits of College
College is a stepping stone to achieving success. From medicine to the arts, being a college graduate means you've made yourself more competitive.
Average lifetime earnings are almost 3x for professional school graduates, and studies show that those with graduate degrees earn on average $1.4 million more in median life earnings than high school graduates.
And the Costs
A college degree is one of the biggest investments that you will make in your lifetime. With any investment, you must understand what you are paying into it, and receiving from it. Knowing this gives you a true sense of what impact this investment makes on your personal and professional life, from today until the day you retire.
