There is a lot to be done with a college education. The cost of Education is escalating, which is cited as one of the top reasons for students not wanting to go to college. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For most of them, it is a cycle of working to study and studying to get work!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The modern adult says, \u2018Ditch that college education and let me find jobs without the degree\u2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If this is a reason, then in that case, the education system should be fixed in a way that can make college education more accessible and feasible. For example, we know that only some qualify for a grants program or a scholarship. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Making the Right Choice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The students must evaluate, and they need guidance. Proper counseling from parents and educators at the right time (probably high school) can help students understand what they want to do in life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Randomly applying for courses can be a waste of time and money if the student wishes to pursue something other than a career in the subjects studied in college. Instead, parents, educators, or counselors can counsel students to understand what they want to do and their preferred career choice and then choose the career path accordingly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A college education is an experience in itself. It gives us a brief glimpse into the real world of work and self-management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A doctor might want to study medicine in college and cannot do without it. Another example can be a child who wants to be a musician and may or may not like to learn music through college. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not only this, but as a society, we need to reduce the biases based on formal degrees and become open to skill-based hiring, which can give equal opportunities to individuals who are skilled and have experience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
