Being sure is so important. Even if you have to take a year off, be sure what you want. I'm doing computer science and while I enjoy it, I'm not 100% sure that it's completely what I want, but I also don't know what else I would do in the future. And I can't afford to change out of it now, even though I'm only a year in. Being sure is pretty important haha
I like how you're moving in a good direction tho, which fits ur niche. If u were to question what you wanted to do and switched majors every few months, then you would've made no progress and you wouldn't have had experience to know if you even liked the major you were doing

This is so me 😭. I stayed in college too long switching majors. I was a bio major for about 2 years thinking it was best for me because my parents wanted me to do it but I was miserable in those classes. I switched around for a bit until I just picked something so that I could get out of college cuz i felt like time was passing me by and I felt hopeless. Be sure what YOU want to do kids.
Damn bro it's like you're talking about me! I also majored in biology for 2 years before switching to psychology. The difference is night and day, at least I feel like I'm studying something useful that has meaning, not some trash ass rocks and plants.
I graduated at 28 years old, have like 70k in student debt, but I really don’t give a flying shit while I see other people stressing all the time about much less. I do have a good job now though
@@blizzthebike I didn't hear anywhere that he wanted to start a business and you don't need a degree to start a business. Businesses aren't difficult just time consuming
just a tip, if you don’t know what you wanna do or major in, do not go to uni. go for gen ed at a community college and save yourself a lot of money until you figure it out and then transfer your credits and go to uni if you want.
Even if you know what you wanna do it’s best to just do 2 years in a community college (your arts) and transfer to a university for the rest. You might even get a scholarship for said school if you work your ass off in those 2 years.
I basically wasted 5 years of higher studies here in Belgium, I didn’t get the bachelors degree in the end. But a debt of 40k $ before starting to work, that’s insane
Yep college is a scam in this modern generation. After highschool people should work different jobs see what they like figure out who they are and what they want to do before committing to such a financial burden. 40k debt with no job offers after wasting 5 years of ur life is setting ur future self up for failure or for a slowed down process to success. Kids work and don’t follow what society or teachers or ur parents are telling you. Work make money become financially secure then explore college.
That's pretty normal, atleast in the UK it is. I have like £45k debt but it's a necessity in many careers and can boost your salary potential tremendously.
@@BattleOfficial_ in my opinon a degree in the UK is borderline worthless. Only a handful of degrees like medicine , engineering , computer science have any real value) I have a biomedical science degree and about 2 years working as a scientist, I made £27,000 a year in my last job and I made more then most people from my university who graduated when I graduated. I went to a good Russell group university but to be honest university rankings really don't mean alot. Job progression in science is fairly slow from where I am. I know people with PHDs who have taken jobs paying less then £30,000. I'm currently applying for trainie engineer jobs which has nothing to do with my current degree because there is more money in it and better progression. 27k might not sound bad but after making it I've come to realise that if you're not living with your parents it leggit goes nowhere, I had like £200 a month spare and that was living really cheaply. At that rate I would never be able to get a house myself. Occasionally I see warehouse jobs paying more then my last job as a clinical scientist. Also my degree was more useful then like 70% of degrees.
@@epic1053 oof that's rough man (or girl, don't want to misgender 🥴) but yeah as you said it's only worth for certain ones. I'm doing computer science so the pay is great straight out of the gate, and even though I probably could have done it without the degree, I wanted the uni experience which I feel for me is where I've gained the most value, even with covid hitting hard. Plus the debt is only payed off when earning a big salary, and will be written off in 30 years, so in my eyes it's worth it.
This is exactly why I didn’t go straight to college. Several of my really good friends went to fairly prestigious schools, arrived and when they realized they were truly on their own for the first time in their lives, started partying and putting minimum (often zero) effort into their studies. They didn’t figure out what they wanted to focus on and spent ~70k a year of their parents money, only to return with a general education they could have gotten in a community college. Education about the education system needs to be promoted and made more blunt for high school kids.
Yeah, especially if the field you're going into isn't going to pay you enough to afford it. Even my sister, who plans to become a nuerosurgeon, made money her first priority in choosing a college because she knew she'd need to save for med school. People treat college like a second childhood and put themselves in sox figure debt for a Journalism or a Sociology degree. The college I go to is fairly expensive (I'm here on scholarship), and it's anxiety inducing to watch people drop 40k per year on an Education degree. I'm going into Cybersecurity and I wouldn't dream of spending that much...
I wish someone told me that you would be punished financially for taking extra classes just because you wanted to learn a specific subject. You basically have to only take classes from your major, because once you reach a certain “credit amount” you’re considered out of state.
@@beverlybarrera8921 it’s a Florida thing- For state universities. Basically once you go over the amount of credits needed for your degree they charge you a fee per credit hour. It’s Florida legislation.
@@hawkgurl1157 it’s a Florida legislation thing, sadly. For state universities.. Basically once you go over the amount of credits needed for your degree they charge you a fee per credit hour. I think it’s like once you reach 110% of the credits you need you’re charged more for each credit.
I can completely relate to this. I just got accepted in my schools nursing program. By the time I’m completely finished with an bachelors degree, I would be in school for a total of 7 years. I wanted to give up every semester but I kept telling myself “since I made it this far I might as well keep going” definitely burning a huge hole in my wallet, so I’m praying everything works out financially in the future.
You cant just pray you have to put in the work in a specific discipline and find out what you truly want to do and what you love or else you will struggle the rest of your life
I feel for this guy, I was stopped from going to uni because of covid. Instead I got my NASM personal trainer certification and went straight to work at 18 years old. If you don’t know what you want to do go to community college or start working. Going into debt without having money is a horrible idea.
That’s why going to Community College should be the way to go. You have time to explore options at a MUCH cheaper price, especially since a lot of us have no idea what we want to do for the rest of our lives at age 18!!!! We barely know what’s out there. I’m not a huge fan of private uni at 18 unless you’re a teen who’s really passionate about a specific thing.
Went to community college first. Got my ADN and became a registered nurse. First job I was making $75,000 @ $49.50/hour without a penny of debt. If you go to college know why you’re going and it is almost 100% a guarantee it will be better at a community college.
I love how honest he was and just owning up to it! It’s okay if things don’t work out the way you thought they would. College isn’t all about finding a job that will pay you a ton.

@OMEGALUL Clap you are speaking like a true communist. Take it from me that I was born and raised in Cuba but lucky enough to leave at a young enough age: free education sucks.
@OMEGALUL Clap the primary reason why many countries can afford free tuition is two fold: 1) the restrictions to attending university are much much MUCH higher. In the US, basically everyone goes to university because the gov. - stupidly - writes a blank loan to dumb 18 year olds. In many European countries, the way it works is basically "OK it's free... if you essentially score the equivalent of a 1300 on the US sat. Everyone else gtfo of here" And 2) even THEN, those tuition costs are HEAVILY subsidized by the US effectively bolstering many European militaries. I 100% think we should exit NATO and leave the EU to develop their own international military coalition. But then they would have to make some SERIOUS budget considerations and i guarantee you the "free" tuition, in its current state at least, would dissolve.
@OMEGALUL Clap Anytime you put 'free' next to something you are in principle making it worthless. Making education free will saturate the education system with morons that don't even want to be there in the first place; the "I might as well do it" bunch. And trust me, even with undergraduate school being this expensive you still have a lot of those. Many people also take out loans to join fraternities while they are breezing through a degree that will land them a high school teaching job at best so give me a fucking break here. I graduated with 25k in debt, a degree in chemical engineering and into an 80k/year job right out of college. Would I do that again? Absolutely yes.
@OMEGALUL Clap And as for everyone's right to get quality education, I absolutely agree with you. There are basically entire degrees and immense amounts of educational content in platforms like CZcams and LinkedIn learning. If you don't want to pay for the learning structure that a typical university gives you then please help yourself into this and become the best version of yourself. I fully support that.
I spent 6 years in college, got my bachelor's, and have 10k in debt from it. My first jobs salary is 56k. I know I got lucky, but I feel like half these people got straight up scammed, coming away from college with 50k debt and HOPING to get a 50k/year job.
Well half these people also take loans out to dick around, party and join a fraternity. I saw too many of them come into the library with their frat bros while I was there pulling my hairs working on my chemical engineering degree. Now life is pretty good and I bet ya a lot of those bros are door-to-door selling solar panels. You reap what you sow.
Up until when I got into uni that's where it hit me, I didn't know what I really wanted to do and stuck with what I knew best which was law but it didn't work out and from there I kept switching going for subjects I thought was interesting or liked but never worked out then I wasted a few years not knowing what I truly wanted and it just made me so depressed, coming from an Indian household where your parents expect a lot from you just made me feel miserable but just now I truly now know what I want to do and it's to go into teaching or child psychology but going through uni again I wouldn't he able to hack it which is why I found s course online level 5 diploma in child psychology and a level 4 certificate in primary teaching. I hope whoever else is struggling not knowing what they want to do will find it soon, we just have different timings and we have to find ourselves and to keep looking 🙏
If anyone is reading this, please take some time to learn what you want to do. As long as it takes. you don't thave to figure it out right away. Due to the pressure that I felt for being the "golden child" of my siblings and many cousins, I went to college right out of highschool. I am only just now figuring out what I want to do with my life after 2 years of college, going from 3.5 to 2.5 gpa, about 25k of out of poket expenses for my parent (my dad made too much money for aid and they don't exactly teach you how to look for and apply for scholarships), and then 2 years off because I knew I didn't like what I was doing. Anyway, I'm planning on going back to school in the fall for computer engineering and then I want to open up a little shop selling gaming computers and stuff for keyboard hobbyists
@@alejandragallegos5642 I'm 23. I already started taking classes since posting this. Young enough that I won't feel like I wasted time.

Never go to college unless you have an idea of what you want to do. Go to community college if anything and do internships and find your niche. That way if you end up not wanting to go you waste less money
Taking more than four years now very normal with how busy and fast paced everyday life has become (and of course with the COVID pandemic). The financial aspect of it is absolutely not fun. If it’s still in one’s price range, starting out at a community college is great for those that are unsure of what to do. I ended up changing my major my second year while I was still there before moving on to a university. I have an AA, am working on my BA while my partner (who started at a local state college) is now about to work on his doctorates in one of the most prestigious grad programs in the country (He’s humble, but I’m extremely proud of him, so I hope this doesn’t read as bragging. I’m very excited). It saves tens of thousands of dollars and is likely still a very quality education. I still believe community college has more value for its buck over local state schools, but it really depends on the individual! For my area, cc had more consistent quality professors/lectures than the local state college, but it varies!
To anyone that's currently in college and are just trying to finish, please PLEASE understand that experience is EVERYTHING!!! If you want that job once you graduate, a degree is NOT good enough. You need to either have a portfolio or years of applicable experience that come WITH your degree. A degree on its own will NOT make you competitive.
Everyone hates on me because I’m 21 and I just stopped going to college lol. But I took a year off after high school to save, then I went into psychology, and decided that it wasn’t for me. And now I turn 22 in a months time and my family is constantly shitting on me, but I could have been studying for a degree I don’t even really want, wasting time and money. At least I’ve been working full time for the last 2-3 years.
😐 using Greece as an example meanwhile y’all are experiencing your worst economic crisis yet. Maybe they should start charging people for college in order to help pay off those debts…
Lets start a chain of realistic college experiences. Here was mine: School: University of Wisconsin Degree: BS in math, analytics minor Time: 5.5 years Debt: $28k Starting Salary (WI): $56,000
@@terabyn4050 actually I lost a scholarship my first year owed about $5600 transferred to community college got good grades there and transferred to a school where they gave me a full scholarship. On top of that I got an internship that was enough to pay my loans off before I graduated in addition to the job I have now.
The last bit is honestly the best advice. Go to a community college or take a year to really think about it and plan out your end game goal before spending money or taking a loan on something you'll have to spend years paying back for. You wouldn't take a loan out on building a house without making a blueprint first, same concept. You can change a room here and there
@@yadirarivera2387 I mostly agree with what you say but moving out LMAO I have a better chance at winning the lottery than live in a $2000 apartment in CALIFORNIA.
What’s sad to me is your paying for it with your much higher tax rate. At least in America college is a choice. Your paying for it wether you decide to go or not.
Man, I wish counselors help more and take students into careers that have practical use in the job market. Integrative studies is a nothing degree that no job would like. Most "studies" degrees are a red flag.
So you mean taking responsibility for your actions and not relying on others to provide something for you. If you want it bad enough you cab bust your ass and earn it maybe you'll appreciate it a little more in the end instead of feeling entitled.
I’m a manager at a restaurant don’t have a degree I make 60k a year don’t need college nowadays to get a good job just make sure u graduate highschool folks
I dropped out of highschool, and dropped out of college. I got a job doing HVAC then moved into industrial hydraulic installs. While I may not be the smartest with books I make close to 100k a year with amazing benefits and retirement and have 0$ student debt.
A GAP year really helps before you go! Both my kids took Gap years. Both chose careers that they started with, both started near debt free- and making high 70's.
Good Lord 60 Grand of debt for $55,000 salary. I work as a cable lineman for a communication company that was hiring randomly in 2017. They paid for my class A CDL and sent me to line School and here I am 5 years later at 96,000 a year with no debt whatsoever. Probably hit that six figures in a couple years. I understand if you have a passion that requires college but damn peeps don't sleep on trades because working with your hands is so valuable.
same thing over here. i dropped out of college and began work in the media engineering firm. at the start we pull cables and install stuff, we aren’t designing or programming yet. but under a year and i’m already in the 6 figure threshold. no loans or anything needed. plus by the time someone were to graduate from med school or anything, i could buy a home cash and still not have a large amount of my income go towards compounding student debt
@@spicyshizz2850 communication companies like spectrum, first light, frontier, AT&t, Verizon, and of course actual lineman positions which would depend on where you live. Here in New York we have nyseg,Central Hudson, con Ed, ect. Got to see what you have in your area. A lot of guys are retiring around this time which means they need to hire new guys to replace the aging workforce. Now is the time
$96k in 5 years? That's a pittance. I've been working as a software engineer and surpassed six figures in the first 4 years. I switch jobs every 1-2 years with a 15-20% pay increase. You'll still just standing there hoping your boss pats you in the head and gives you a treat for being a good boy.
@@CTity860 you see that’s not true is it. The SNP have confirmed Scots pay less tax than England who don’t have free education. And even if we did pay more, the extra £125 or so make up for £40,000 worth of debt every year.
$40,000 to $45,000 soo much lol 😂 you need to get an job to get that amount so then you can have a great career!! I would have an job offer but I have exams literally time by time 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
True, it’s important to figure out what you want to do b4 college. And if you don’t it’s ok, don’t just take general ed. go toward the general field that you think you’ll be, for example, if you know that you want to major in sciences but doesn’t know, then take math classes. or if you’re good at smth that’s also a good sign (you may not like it but at least you’re less stress taking smth you like or good at, rather than tackle smth that’s difficult and don’t like. And ofcourse required/prequisite classes
This is why my biggest advice to people that don't know what they want to do in college is to just wait. College will always be there, but if you spend lots of money on a degree or program you have no interest in doing, you're only hurting yourself in the long run. Take your time, find a simple job hiring, figure out your hobbies and what you enjoy doing most then see if the school you wanna go to offers a program you want. The last thing anyone wants is crippling debt, a useless degree and/or time wasted
Why didnt he just going into athletics or coaching. Would be a certificate and way cheaper. This is a prime example of way you take your time and know what you want to do before you get into college
Well he’s doing something that has nothing to do with the job he wants. So for him college was pointless he could’ve just took a trainers certification

@@Angel-hf8ns TBH, I think it's a useful degree. It teaches you so much about the world of work and I see the applicability almost everywhere. I actually did my Alevels towards a completely different field but Im glad I chose this degree. My father actually inspired me to and listening to him wasn't too bad. It's a versatile degree. I'm actually planning on doing a Master's/Postgrad after so I went for general. But if you have the opportunity to go for a specialised one (for example Business with finance or law) that's even better as long as you're set on what you want to do. I still want to experiment after graduating by working for a year or two then get into a specialisation which will be my Master's degree.
My mans got $40,000 in debt and is going to make around $50,000 a year!!! That’s why sometimes you can’t just jump into college without knowing what you want to do
I graduate from undergrad on Friday after 5 years. My debt: $0.00 My biggest flex is walking up to my homies and saying, "yo check it out, I got my student debt in my trunk." "But there's nothing in there?" "EXACTLY."
I just learned how to double major off of CZcams and tbh, I think ima do it. My depart is Business Administration so it’ll be an AS in Accounting and an AA in Economics. Both degrees have many of the same class requirements like Economics 1&2 , Business Law, Accounting 1&2, etc. then the other classes like history and art would count for both degrees. I think it would worth it because looking at the accounting degree, I’d be learning finance and other skills that are offered as a certificate of achievement. The economics side I think would broaden my job opportunities. Business administration is already a broadened degree in itself and I think I’ll have an easier time picking my consent ration for my BS. I honestly don’t even know if I want to transfer to a 4 year after my AA and most jobs in this field require a Bachelors. I think this will give me a competitive edge when trying to get a job and help me pay off whatever debts I accumulate. My school has internship program and all.
I had a 4 year ROTC scholarship. Paid 0 tuition and 0 for housing. Owed 4 years to the army and spent it all in the national guard so I have 2 careers now. Best deal ever.
Get me in this video! Pursuing two Master’s degrees, in $60k debt but working two jobs in my field so I can pay as I attend (hopefully graduate free of debt). Now, if you were to ask me about my bachelor’s, I still worked two jobs, straight A student, didn’t use loans, and paid it off before I graduated.
Same here. Did 2 years as a Mechanical Engineer student. Even though i was doing okay (grades wise), mentally I was not. Switched my major to Logistics and Supply Chain Management and I couldn’t be more happier. I just wish I knew sooner cause it did held me back 1 year. I still think it was worth it cause my mental health comes first more than anything.
I have a bachelors degree in Computer Science and student loans around $28,000. While not as bad as $40-100k Im still trying to save up as much as I can and Im continually applying to anything that data analytics and such.

Yep college is a scam in this modern generation. After highschool people should work different jobs see what they like figure out who they are and what they want to do before committing to such a financial burden. 40k debt with no job offers after wasting 5 years of ur life is setting ur future self up for failure or for a slowed down process to success. Kids work and don’t follow what society or teachers or ur parents are telling you. Work make money become financially secure then explore college.
In belgium ? But most of studies are cheaper than others countries . What were u studying ?
Is the limit for bachelor is 5 years there?
In Indonesia it's 7 years with terms & conditions.
"it means I get to get out of here as soon as I can"
"I'm a 5th year, I've been here too long."
🤦🏻♀️ This is painful to witness.
He really does seem confused. Explains why he chose that degree.
He said it wouldve be nice if he knew about what he wanted to do earlier
@@hii_im_trash7315 How so? It sounds like he switched majors early on, hence the additional year
There nothing wrong with being a 5th year, a lot of people are, but he definitely should have just taken some time to figure out what he wanted to do
that's why he said he wish he knew what he wanted to do, 75% of students get multiple degrees cause they aren't sure what they want to do
guy trust his pants so little that he wears a belt AND suspenders
Didn’t even notice , it’s all about the aesthetic 😮💨
it just looks cleaner. Suspenders by themselves are old people clothing imo
@@jcrodriguezco nothing aesthetic about wearing both, it looks goofy
@@littlebig8424 nah, it's a either/or kinda thing. Wearing both is redundant at best.
He's been pantsed too many times
Belt AND suspenders? this guy really likes to play it safe
Not with his education though lmaoo.
Right it ain't gone help him know what to become
I really doubt that.
Reverse sag
That’s why he went $45k in debt to do jack shit at college for 5 years
that dude.......poor guy☹️
Sad thing is a lot of people have around this amount
That's pretty normal, atleast in the UK it is. I have like £45k debt but it's a necessity in many careers and can boost your salary potential tremendously.
40-45k is literally just 10 semesters of utilizing FAFSA (i.e, 5 years of college). Very normal for any 5th year
@@BattleOfficial_ in my opinon a degree in the UK is borderline worthless.
Only a handful of degrees like medicine , engineering , computer science have any real value) I have a biomedical science degree and about 2 years working as a scientist, I made £27,000 a year in my last job and I made more then most people from my university who graduated when I graduated.
I went to a good Russell group university but to be honest university rankings really don't mean alot.
Job progression in science is fairly slow from where I am. I know people with PHDs who have taken jobs paying less then £30,000.
I'm currently applying for trainie engineer jobs which has nothing to do with my current degree because there is more money in it and better progression.
27k might not sound bad but after making it I've come to realise that if you're not living with your parents it leggit goes nowhere, I had like £200 a month spare and that was living really cheaply. At that rate I would never be able to get a house myself.
Occasionally I see warehouse jobs paying more then my last job as a clinical scientist.
Also my degree was more useful then like 70% of degrees.
@@epic1053 oof that's rough man (or girl, don't want to misgender 🥴) but yeah as you said it's only worth for certain ones. I'm doing computer science so the pay is great straight out of the gate, and even though I probably could have done it without the degree, I wanted the uni experience which I feel for me is where I've gained the most value, even with covid hitting hard. Plus the debt is only payed off when earning a big salary, and will be written off in 30 years, so in my eyes it's worth it.
This dude is exactly why I want to know what I wanna do before I start
Wish I had that luxury
The college system in this country is absolutely broken. Christ
Videos like these reassure me that I’m making the right choice going to community college for free cause I have no idea what I want to do
I'm lucky my parents are okay with community College. I can change my major and take as many fun classes I want with no debt 😔
Ong fr🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is exactly why I didn’t go straight to college. Several of my really good friends went to fairly prestigious schools, arrived and when they realized they were truly on their own for the first time in their lives, started partying and putting minimum (often zero) effort into their studies. They didn’t figure out what they wanted to focus on and spent ~70k a year of their parents money, only to return with a general education they could have gotten in a community college.
Education about the education system needs to be promoted and made more blunt for high school kids.
Yeah, especially if the field you're going into isn't going to pay you enough to afford it. Even my sister, who plans to become a nuerosurgeon, made money her first priority in choosing a college because she knew she'd need to save for med school.
People treat college like a second childhood and put themselves in sox figure debt for a Journalism or a Sociology degree. The college I go to is fairly expensive (I'm here on scholarship), and it's anxiety inducing to watch people drop 40k per year on an Education degree. I'm going into Cybersecurity and I wouldn't dream of spending that much...
I feel this! I couldn’t decide what I wanted to do and changed my major 3 times. Caused me to be in school for years longer than I should have!
I wish someone told me that you would be punished financially for taking extra classes just because you wanted to learn a specific subject. You basically have to only take classes from your major, because once you reach a certain “credit amount” you’re considered out of state.
Do you what’s the credit amount? Or depends on the university ?
I have never heard that before. I guess that's a your college thing?
@@beverlybarrera8921 it’s a Florida thing- For state universities. Basically once you go over the amount of credits needed for your degree they charge you a fee per credit hour. It’s Florida legislation.
@@hawkgurl1157 it’s a Florida legislation thing, sadly. For state universities.. Basically once you go over the amount of credits needed for your degree they charge you a fee per credit hour. I think it’s like once you reach 110% of the credits you need you’re charged more for each credit.
ITS A TEXAS THING TOO, yes shit is crazyyyyyyy
Remember intelligence versus education is two different things most people on a campus are not very intelligent trust me
That really blows my mind... Even today when the information is relatively free..still Universities are able to pull this off
Lmao you're blaming universities just because this guy is dumb and didn't even know what to do with his life?
Exactly!
I can completely relate to this. I just got accepted in my schools nursing program. By the time I’m completely finished with an bachelors degree, I would be in school for a total of 7 years. I wanted to give up every semester but I kept telling myself “since I made it this far I might as well keep going” definitely burning a huge hole in my wallet, so I’m praying everything works out financially in the future.
You got it man never give up I believe in you may god be with✊🏿🙏🏿
Good luck !!
You cant just pray you have to put in the work in a specific discipline and find out what you truly want to do and what you love or else you will struggle the rest of your life
I'll have been in school 7 years by the time I get my BSN too...
How many times did you get rejected
I feel for this guy, I was stopped from going to uni because of covid. Instead I got my NASM personal trainer certification and went straight to work at 18 years old. If you don’t know what you want to do go to community college or start working. Going into debt without having money is a horrible idea.
I told my college friends how much a GM at a hardware store makes and they lost their shit. Average is 130k but about 175k after bonuses.
What is a gm? Is it a General manager?
@@razojacqueline yea. Or other words, store manager.
@@vitald8796 wow!
That’s why going to Community College should be the way to go. You have time to explore options at a MUCH cheaper price, especially since a lot of us have no idea what we want to do for the rest of our lives at age 18!!!! We barely know what’s out there. I’m not a huge fan of private uni at 18 unless you’re a teen who’s really passionate about a specific thing.
Went to community college first. Got my ADN and became a registered nurse. First job I was making $75,000 @ $49.50/hour without a penny of debt. If you go to college know why you’re going and it is almost 100% a guarantee it will be better at a community college.

@OMEGALUL Clap how about you pay your debts.
@OMEGALUL Clap you are speaking like a true communist. Take it from me that I was born and raised in Cuba but lucky enough to leave at a young enough age: free education sucks.
@OMEGALUL Clap the primary reason why many countries can afford free tuition is two fold:
1) the restrictions to attending university are much much MUCH higher. In the US, basically everyone goes to university because the gov. - stupidly - writes a blank loan to dumb 18 year olds.
In many European countries, the way it works is basically "OK it's free... if you essentially score the equivalent of a 1300 on the US sat. Everyone else gtfo of here"
And 2) even THEN, those tuition costs are HEAVILY subsidized by the US effectively bolstering many European militaries. I 100% think we should exit NATO and leave the EU to develop their own international military coalition. But then they would have to make some SERIOUS budget considerations and i guarantee you the "free" tuition, in its current state at least, would dissolve.
@OMEGALUL Clap Anytime you put 'free' next to something you are in principle making it worthless. Making education free will saturate the education system with morons that don't even want to be there in the first place; the "I might as well do it" bunch. And trust me, even with undergraduate school being this expensive you still have a lot of those. Many people also take out loans to join fraternities while they are breezing through a degree that will land them a high school teaching job at best so give me a fucking break here.
I graduated with 25k in debt, a degree in chemical engineering and into an 80k/year job right out of college. Would I do that again? Absolutely yes.
@OMEGALUL Clap And as for everyone's right to get quality education, I absolutely agree with you. There are basically entire degrees and immense amounts of educational content in platforms like CZcams and LinkedIn learning. If you don't want to pay for the learning structure that a typical university gives you then please help yourself into this and become the best version of yourself. I fully support that.
I spent 6 years in college, got my bachelor's, and have 10k in debt from it. My first jobs salary is 56k. I know I got lucky, but I feel like half these people got straight up scammed, coming away from college with 50k debt and HOPING to get a 50k/year job.
Well half these people also take loans out to dick around, party and join a fraternity. I saw too many of them come into the library with their frat bros while I was there pulling my hairs working on my chemical engineering degree.
Now life is pretty good and I bet ya a lot of those bros are door-to-door selling solar panels. You reap what you sow.
Did you go to community college first?
Up until when I got into uni that's where it hit me, I didn't know what I really wanted to do and stuck with what I knew best which was law but it didn't work out and from there I kept switching going for subjects I thought was interesting or liked but never worked out then I wasted a few years not knowing what I truly wanted and it just made me so depressed, coming from an Indian household where your parents expect a lot from you just made me feel miserable but just now I truly now know what I want to do and it's to go into teaching or child psychology but going through uni again I wouldn't he able to hack it which is why I found s course online level 5 diploma in child psychology and a level 4 certificate in primary teaching. I hope whoever else is struggling not knowing what they want to do will find it soon, we just have different timings and we have to find ourselves and to keep looking 🙏
Same thing for me. I was in bangladesh. Had to drop out and move to canada, pursued a 2 year diploma in my late 20's
If anyone is reading this, please take some time to learn what you want to do. As long as it takes. you don't thave to figure it out right away. Due to the pressure that I felt for being the "golden child" of my siblings and many cousins, I went to college right out of highschool. I am only just now figuring out what I want to do with my life after 2 years of college, going from 3.5 to 2.5 gpa, about 25k of out of poket expenses for my parent (my dad made too much money for aid and they don't exactly teach you how to look for and apply for scholarships), and then 2 years off because I knew I didn't like what I was doing. Anyway, I'm planning on going back to school in the fall for computer engineering and then I want to open up a little shop selling gaming computers and stuff for keyboard hobbyists

The majority of people who have gone to uni work in a different field than what they got their degree in.
Never go to college unless you have an idea of what you want to do. Go to community college if anything and do internships and find your niche. That way if you end up not wanting to go you waste less money
Bro coulda passed that fitness exam 3 months after high school and got the SAME job.
6th year, knew what I wanted immediately and never changed, still have half a BFA left
Taking more than four years now very normal with how busy and fast paced everyday life has become (and of course with the COVID pandemic). The financial aspect of it is absolutely not fun. If it’s still in one’s price range, starting out at a community college is great for those that are unsure of what to do. I ended up changing my major my second year while I was still there before moving on to a university. I have an AA, am working on my BA while my partner (who started at a local state college) is now about to work on his doctorates in one of the most prestigious grad programs in the country (He’s humble, but I’m extremely proud of him, so I hope this doesn’t read as bragging. I’m very excited). It saves tens of thousands of dollars and is likely still a very quality education.
I still believe community college has more value for its buck over local state schools, but it really depends on the individual! For my area, cc had more consistent quality professors/lectures than the local state college, but it varies!
To anyone that's currently in college and are just trying to finish, please PLEASE understand that experience is EVERYTHING!!!
If you want that job once you graduate, a degree is NOT good enough. You need to either have a portfolio or years of applicable experience that come WITH your degree. A degree on its own will NOT make you competitive.
Everyone hates on me because I’m 21 and I just stopped going to college lol. But I took a year off after high school to save, then I went into psychology, and decided that it wasn’t for me. And now I turn 22 in a months time and my family is constantly shitting on me, but I could have been studying for a degree I don’t even really want, wasting time and money. At least I’ve been working full time for the last 2-3 years.

Just so you know, this man got screwed!!! I feel bad man, he could have gone to any trade school for all of that.
True, it’s important to figure out what you want to do b4 college. And if you don’t it’s ok, don’t just take general ed. go toward the general field that you think you’ll be, for example, if you know that you want to major in sciences but doesn’t know, then take math classes. or if you’re good at smth that’s also a good sign (you may not like it but at least you’re less stress taking smth you like or good at, rather than tackle smth that’s difficult and don’t like. And ofcourse required/prequisite classes
This is why my biggest advice to people that don't know what they want to do in college is to just wait. College will always be there, but if you spend lots of money on a degree or program you have no interest in doing, you're only hurting yourself in the long run. Take your time, find a simple job hiring, figure out your hobbies and what you enjoy doing most then see if the school you wanna go to offers a program you want. The last thing anyone wants is crippling debt, a useless degree and/or time wasted

@@Angel-hf8ns TBH, I think it's a useful degree. It teaches you so much about the world of work and I see the applicability almost everywhere. I actually did my Alevels towards a completely different field but Im glad I chose this degree. My father actually inspired me to and listening to him wasn't too bad. It's a versatile degree.
I'm actually planning on doing a Master's/Postgrad after so I went for general. But if you have the opportunity to go for a specialised one (for example Business with finance or law) that's even better as long as you're set on what you want to do. I still want to experiment after graduating by working for a year or two then get into a specialisation which will be my Master's degree.

I just learned how to double major off of CZcams and tbh, I think ima do it. My depart is Business Administration so it’ll be an AS in Accounting and an AA in Economics. Both degrees have many of the same class requirements like Economics 1&2 , Business Law, Accounting 1&2, etc. then the other classes like history and art would count for both degrees. I think it would worth it because looking at the accounting degree, I’d be learning finance and other skills that are offered as a certificate of achievement. The economics side I think would broaden my job opportunities. Business administration is already a broadened degree in itself and I think I’ll have an easier time picking my consent ration for my BS. I honestly don’t even know if I want to transfer to a 4 year after my AA and most jobs in this field require a Bachelors. I think this will give me a competitive edge when trying to get a job and help me pay off whatever debts I accumulate. My school has internship program and all.
Hia answer was so jam packed he took up the whole tiktok
I had a 4 year ROTC scholarship. Paid 0 tuition and 0 for housing. Owed 4 years to the army and spent it all in the national guard so I have 2 careers now. Best deal ever.
Get me in this video! Pursuing two Master’s degrees, in $60k debt but working two jobs in my field so I can pay as I attend (hopefully graduate free of debt). Now, if you were to ask me about my bachelor’s, I still worked two jobs, straight A student, didn’t use loans, and paid it off before I graduated.
Same here. Did 2 years as a Mechanical Engineer student. Even though i was doing okay (grades wise), mentally I was not. Switched my major to Logistics and Supply Chain Management and I couldn’t be more happier. I just wish I knew sooner cause it did held me back 1 year. I still think it was worth it cause my mental health comes first more than anything.
