THE BRUTAL FACTS ABOUT COLLEGE SUCCESS

  • 55% of all 4-year college students fail to earn a degree and 80% of all 2-year college students fail to earn a degree (The Four-Year Myth, College Complete America).
  • Most students who earn a degree take 6 years for a 4 year degree and 3 years for a 2 year degree, accumulating approximately $37,000 in student loan and credit card debt.
  • Most employers say that most college students are unemployable.

SO WHY ATTEND A COLLEGE?

  • A college degree is well worth the investment with most 4 year graduates earning between $700,000 and $1,000,000 more when compared to those who do not have a degree.
  • The best predictor of future success is not the college you attend but the major you chose.  This should greatly influence where you attend college.
