A college education can mean: Greater Knowledge A college education will increase your ability to understand developments in science and in society, to think abstractly and critically, to express thoughts clearly in speech and in writing, and to make wise decisions. These skills are useful both on and off the job. Greater Potential A college education can help increase your understanding of the community, the nation, and the world – as you explore interests, discover new areas of knowledge, consider lifelong goals, and become a responsible citizen. More Job Opportunities The world is changing rapidly. Many jobs rely on new technology and already require more brain power than muscle power. In a person's working life, more and more jobs will require education beyond high school. With a college education, you will have more jobs from which to choose. More Money A person who attends college generally earns more than a person who does not. Someone with a two-year associate's degree also tends to earn more than a high school graduate. Some of these benefits of college may not be obvious to a student. Even though you have to make the final decision to attend college, parents can help in the decision-making process by learning about all aspects of college and sharing what is learned with the child.
