Thread: Im not going to college

Hey im leaving high school in 2 weeks and not going to college, is college a big deal or not?

A college degree is a major advantage in terms of career and knowledge, and going to college is a whole lot of fun.

It's all personal choice, but not going to college seems like a poor life decision IMO. Unless you have the worlds greatest job lined up or you're set for life through inheritances, I'd say go.
It's a great experience and the degree helps a lot in the future.

Yeah it's a big deal. You learn a lot of new people who will end up in the same bussiness as you. But if you want to do something in life that doesnt require a degree, then college is kinda useless I guess..

You can be successful without college... It's your life and you should do what you want, whether it be typical or atypical... College has been made out to be a necessity and I don't think that college should be like that... (Typical and atypical came from the dictionary.com thesaurus section)

If college isn't for you, don't go. And don't let anyone tell you any different.

I endorse this statement.

"Can be" and "are likely to be" are two very different things.
