    also what kind of work needs a 4 year apprenticeship? 2 more years and you can apply for a master letter over here

    too subjective to make blanket statements like this totally depends on the person tbr uni is a great experience although so many ppl waste their time & money there

    College= university (where im from anyway).

    Just saying because a lot of people I know who are anti-unviersity, or what ever, didnt go them selves and it often seems in spite of the people attending higher education. Im the only person in my friend group who went to university and I allways get edgy comments from friends like "when are you going to get a job your wasting your time at uni ", "what are you gona do with that degree?" etc....they dont realize not evervody wants to be a trady and there are so many careers where university is the only place to start.

    ye no im working rn but whenever this company goes well or under im probably getting a master or smthn, while doing freelance work on the side. uni can be a good thing i just think 18 years of education is wasted time in most professions, it should be more effective than that.

    uni itself isnt necessarily the root of it but a lot of them dont help at all

    yeah I think the poll is referring to public colleges or something I don't know

    Don't go to college if you don't need to/can't afford to imo

    I wasn't lucky i was just willing to work hard. Too many people come out of school and still expect everything to be handed to them
