- College isn't the ideal ivory tower it might have once been. These days it's more likely you'll find a high cost, low value degree that just helps you check a career box. If you want to get the most out of college, take a non-traditional path. I'll explain more near the end of the video.

As someone in a field where I use my degree, (I have a math based Degree and work as an actuary) I still so agree with this. Of 120 college credits to graduate I use maybe 30 of those credits for my work (8 math/stats class, and two writing classes as I do have to write reports). There is so much fluff that I feel should be cut from degree's even in ones that end up being relevant to work.
Right? I get needing to be qualified to do your job, but why all the unrelated stuff? It's an old system that needs shaking up (a lot).
@Daniel Walker do you have any colleagues with other fields' degrees? I was interested in being an Actuary but don't have a bachelor's in math.
@@zeynubshaikh The key to being an actuary is the Actuarial exam. I've met a few career changes and heard of people with all sort of random majors. If you have a bachelors and 2-3 actuarial exams you are able to get into the field.
Congratulations, if you watch this channel you are a winner. You are a winner because you are forward thinking and oppose austerity.
Wow, thank you!
There is a problem when college costs so much yet the average college graduate makes the same as an average skilled tradesman yet the trades man doesn’t carry around the college student loans… where I work, truck drivers make on average $90,000 a year and they can’t find enough of them!
Colleges abroad are 3 years bachelor's and 2 years masters and no fluff
College is for attaining knowledge and debating, but now that is ending. Most degrees do not lead to direct employment with your respective degree.
Yeah, I didn't even talk about that very much, but with so many people having bachelor's degrees, it's harder to be competitive.
I've been in accounting for over 20 years & I hardly use only 20% of what I learned in college.
BTW, I miss your old theme music with your videos
Isn't that the truth? Haha, glad you liked the old music. Wanted to just get on with it these days and get into the content.
I enjoy these videos so much. I'm 36 years old and have a 17 year old getting ready for high school graduation. This is so informative for both of us. Thank you
Excellent video.
#7 Federal financial aid, especially the proliferation of student loans, have allowed universities to significantly raise prices.
So much I’ve learned listening to this video. Thank you 🙏🏽
You're welcome! I'm glad you liked it!
This guy: "The average cost of college is 9,500 dollars per year!"
Me: "ONLY 9k?! Where do I sign up??"
Haha, that's only tuition dollars, and that's also only state schools for in-state students.
@@CollegeHacked but for a moment... I had hope 🤧
Excellent video 👍!
Thank you very much!
thank you bro i felt overwhelmed by looking for a online college but after 2 videos of yours its becoming clear
You got this!!! 🥳🥳
I think a four year college for people that wants to be doctors, lawyers and professional.
Right? There are certain professions that I feel more comfortable with having gotten a full degree but even then a competency
based model should theoretically be even more effective in hitting learning outcomes.
What colleges are best for people with learning disabilities?
First? Thanks for the great content
First indeed. And you're welcome. :)
I have my daughter hate me for the moment! I told her that College tuition was a scam.
Haha, I hope you guys can come together again. lol
@@CollegeHacked Me too I miss her 😢. I told her that I couldn't become homeless 😔. My Ex husband and my daughter wanted me to sell my house and pay her $500k tuition
Thanks for the informative content. As far as you’re aware, can I attend a community college for 3 1/2 years, then transfer to a university for my last semester in order to get a university degree?
Most universities will want 30 credits done with them, so I'd say it's more of a 3/1 split.
Good day from New York!!! I love this video I wish I could give this video a hundred likes seriously.. Ladies and gentlemen it is not hard to understand why college is so expensive. Take a look at the Ivy League colleges and take a look at who is on the board of directors of these colleges very simple and some of these parents aren’t too busy living through their children, helping their children get into debt, if you are going to an Ivy League college to just study English for your undergrad and come out with a debt of $300,000 and then you are a serious fool …. with colleges that have regional accreditation like Western Governors University, charter Oaks, State College, Thomas Edison, UMPI. There is no reason for anyone to be spending an excessive amount of money at a brick and water school unless you are going for a very technical degree like nursing physician assistant, MD
Thanks for the support! 😄
why the heck don't you have more views?! D:
Cat videos can be so tempting to people. I get it. People have their priorities.
If you take a look at Western Governors, IT degrees, and the certifications that come with it, nobody so far has a far superior program online didn’t Westin governors as far as IT degrees, not even your brick and mortar schools
Thank you just watched this video. I have an AA degree. I want a better job than fast food in the future.
You totally can! A bachelor's degree isn't the only way to do it, but it is a (mostly) safe way to achieve that goal. I say go for it! But don't just be running from something. Be running toward something. Do your research on your career goal!
@@CollegeHacked my career goal is to be an entrepreneur
@@ElbertTreble Ah, well, you probably don't need a college degree then. You just need to go hang out with people who are further along than you. You need a mentor.
@@CollegeHacked where can I find a mentor on this career I want.
@@ElbertTreble It depends on the mentor and on the industry. Basically, think of the person you want to be and ask yourself where those people hang out. Then go there. Or start making your way there.
If everyone's educated, no one will be.
Haha, okay, Syndrome, but kind of, yeah, especially in terms of competitiveness for jobs.
Signalling inflation
no, just get me my degree so I can gtfo
That's how a lot of people feel for sure.
I have enjoyed your content in this channel but this video is a lot one sided. I think people need a variety of areas of knowledge, to understand life, and others. College is expensive, but if you are taking advantage of the resources provided by the institution, you get your money’s worth. Some a predatory so stay away from those. Most expensive colleges have faculty members that provide a specialized experience and expertise to provide some of the most unique courses that can only be taken at those institutions. But, if you don’t care about learning anything other than the classes you want to take, that is why the associates degree comes in, boot camps, certifications, training, etc.
Just be smart about figuring out what you see yourself doing for 30 years. And don’t be afraid to change paths…
Good advice about not being afraid to change paths! In the old days college was more like you described, where the process of learning helped students grow. But now the vast majority of degrees are earned online and that social dynamic is removed, leaving a lot of pointless fluff work of low quality. That’s what has made way for hacking. If schools were still affordable and valuable intrinsic experiences, we wouldn’t exist. Unfortunately the market is broken and much of the value degrees once offered in their traditional form is gone.
Don't forget about the woke indoctrination, too.
It’s a bummer 😔
